Donald Trump has introduced Indiana Governor Mike Pence as his running mate, completing the Republican ticket for the presidential election.
At a Manhattan hotel, the New York property developer said his vice-presidential pick was a "solid" man.
He tried to dispel reports that he had been conflicted about his choice by insisting the 57-year-old governor was definitely his first choice.
Mr Pence is well known for his strong socially-conservative credentials.
The governor joined Mr Trump on stage and described him as "a good man" who "will make a great president".
Mr Trump will be formally made the Republican presidential candidate at the party's national convention in Cleveland next week.
Mr Trump praised his vice-presidential choice as man who had served "with distinction" in Congress equipped with "the skills of a highly talented executive".
"I introduce a man who I truly believe will be outstanding in every way and who will be the next vice-president of the United States, Governor Mike Pence," he said.
