Ted Cruz's big 4pm announcement? As sources told Politico in advance that he would, he named Carly Fiorina as his vice presidential running mate. "After a great deal of consideration and prayer, I have come to the conclusion that if I am nominated to be president of the United States that I will run on a ticket with my vice presidential nominee Carly Fiorina," Cruz said, per CNN. Politico calls Fiorina one of "Cruz's most loyal and active surrogates" since she ended her own presidential bid. Cruz made the announcement in Indiana, where he's campaigning this week in advance of Tuesday's primary. (More Ted Cruz stories.)
