"Bernie Sanders would give Hillary Clinton the biggest bump as her vice presidential pick, and Marco Rubio would do the same for Donald Trump, according to a new poll.
A Monmouth University survey released Thursday tested six potential running mates from both major parties to see who would attract more people to a ticket and who would repel the most undecided voters.
On the Democratic side, Sanders is the only candidate who would bring more voters into the fold.
Thirty-nine percent of voters nationwide said they would be more likely to vote for the Democratic ticket if Clinton tapped Sanders as her running mate, compared with 20 percent who said they would be less likely to support Democrats with him onboard.
Those figures are even higher among undecided and independent voters considering supporting a third-party candidate. Fifty percent of that subset said having Sanders as the vice presidential nominee would make them more likely to support Clinton, and 16 percent said it would not.
Clinton, however, is not expected to pick Sanders as her running mate. The Vermont senator is technically still running against her in the Democratic primary.
Even if Sanders were on her shortlist, he has signaled that he doesn’t believe becoming vice president is the best use of the political capital he’s earned through the primary process.
The rest of the Democrats tested had very little impact.
