Noem, Stefanik to speak at CPAC amid VP chatter: Live updates

The third day of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) is kicking off in National Harbor, Md., Thursday, with some of former President Trump’s top allies set to speak.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (D) and Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) are all on the schedule amid growing speculation over whom Trump will choose to be his running mate.

The event comes as Trump, who currently holds about a 2 percentage point lead over President Biden in national polls averaged by The Hill and Decision Desk HQ, is on a glide path toward nomination.
