CLEVELAND, OH (WCMH/AP) — Donald Trump has named Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as his vice presidential candidate, the presidential candidate confirms on Twitter.

Stipulation began circulating after Pence was the only potential name that was left off of the Republican National Convention speakers list.

Pence, 57, is a steady, staunch conservative who would help calm nervous Republican wary of Trump’s impulsive style. He served six terms in Congress before becoming Indiana governor. He also has deep ties to evangelical Christians and other conservatives, particularly after signing a law last year that critics said would have allowed businesses to deny service to gay people for religious reasons.

Trump took notice of Pence during the Indiana primary, noting that the governor had high praise for him despite endorsing one of his rivals. The two don’t see eye to eye on every issue, such as Trump’s pledge to ban Muslim people from entering the United States.

Pence is also a supporter for the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal. Trump has called that deal “terrible” multiple times during his campaign rallies.

Trump says he’ll hold a news conference on Saturday morning.

Trump had originally planned to announce his running mate on Friday. But he delayed the announcement because of the attacks in Nice, France, late Thursday.

Pence had already flown to New York before Trump announced the postponement.Keep checking NBC4i.com for real-time updates on this story. To get alerts for breaking news, grab the free NBC4 News App for iPhone or Android. You can also sign up for email alerts.What others are clicking on:
