Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker is out with a new video supporting Vice President Kamala Harris‘ presidential campaign — but some have speculated she may have inadvertently revealed Harris’ pick for vice president, as it reportedly wasn’t supposed to be released for a few more days.

Proud to be back with so many leaders from across our region supporting @KamalaHarris for President and @JoshShapiroPA for VP! We are One CITY, One REGION, and ONE Commonwealth United!” wrote Parker’s X account. The video included several people proclaiming their support for Harris for president, and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro for vice president.

“His policies have not only supported the working class, but have set standards for progressive leadership that benefits all citizens,” said the video.

This comes as Shapiro, who was widely known to be one of Harris’ finalists for running mate alongside candidates like Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY), and Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), met with the Harris campaign, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.

According to Ernest Owens of Philly Mag, “Philly political sources have told me that a staffer connected with Mayor Cherelle Parker’s team accidentally posted the video today. The video was scheduled for Monday…after VP Kamala Harris was expected to announce her pick.”

He added that the release of the video has set off a “firestorm” — further fueling speculation that Harris’ decision has already been made.

Users on X quickly reacted to the video.

“‘Cherelle Parker accidentally leaks the Josh Shapiro VP announcement by posting the video promo three days early’ is absolutely how this whole VP buzz saga was destined to end,” quipped @PanasonicDX4500.

“LEAK: Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker accidentally published this video ahead of schedule. She leaked Kamala Harris’ pick for Vice President as Josh Shapiro,” wrote right-wing influencer Ian Miles Cheong.
