GOP Ticket Punched: Donald Trump Introduces Gov. Mike Pence as Running Mate
By Neil A. Carousso
New York, NY — Donald Trump introduced Governor Mike Pence (R-IA) on Saturday morning at the New York Hilton Midtown. Trump said Pence was his “first choice” because he was impressed by Pence’s record in Indiana which includes over 150,000 new private sector jobs, 32,000 school choice scholarships and the 2nd lowest unemployment among veterans in the nation.
The Republican National Convention begins Monday in Cleveland, OH where Trump and Pence are expected to be officially billed on the Republican ticket.
