Trump's VP search heats up as campaign reportedly requests documents from Burgum, Vance and Rubio

Former President Donald Trump's campaign is starting to formally request information from possible running mates including North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Sens. Marco Rubio and J.D. Vance.

Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., and former Housing and Urban Development Sec. Ben Carson were also asked for information by Trump's campaign but the extent of the requests is not clear, according to a report from ABC News.

Trump was recently asked about his current short list of potential running mates. 

"I thought Tim Scott didn't run as good of a race as he's capable of running for himself, but as a surrogate for me, he's unbelievable. He's been incredible," Trump said.

"Gov. Burgum from North Dakota has been incredible. Marco Rubio has been great. J.D. Vance has been great. We've had so many great people out there."
