WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign (all times local):

9:30 a.m.

Donald Trump has offered Indiana Gov. Mike Pence the vice presidential spot on the Republican ticket – and Trump aides have told Pence that the formal announcement could come as early as Saturday.

That word comes from a Republican with direct knowledge of the selection process. The Republican wasn’t authorized to publicly discuss the details of Trump’s search for a running mate and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The Republican says Trump made the offer on Thursday afternoon, before Pence traveled later in the day to New York.
