The first female vice-presidential candidate was Geraldine Ferraro, who ran on the Democratic ticket with presidential nominee Walter Mondale in the 1984 election.

Her campaign focused on issues such as women's rights and social justice, and she became a symbol of progress for women in politics.

An individual chosen by a presidential candidate to run for vice president is known as the vice presidential nominee. This person is selected to complement the presidential candidate's platform and appeal to a broader electorate. The vice presidential nominee runs alongside the candidate in the general election and, if elected, serves as the second-highest executive officer in the U.S. government, stepping in as president if needed.
The final choice is made by the electoral college, just as the choice for president is made. In every state, the vice presidential candidate appears on the ballot along with the presidential candidate; they run as a team. This is a huge change from the original method in the Constitution, wherein the vice president was the presidential candidate with the second most votes.
