Fitial said a committee of the Covenant Party, which he founded in 2001, will announce its selection on March 24, Covenant Day.
“The committee will decide on this matter,” he said.
Fleming could not be immediately reached for comment while Inos, the Covenant Party chairman, smiled and declined to comment.
Some Covenant Party supporters said there are other contenders for the post.
House Minority Leader Oscar M. Babauta, Covenant-Saipan, said he is not one of these potential running mates.
Lt. Gov. Timothy P. Villagomez, Fitial’s running mate in 2005, has been indicted for conspiracy to defraud the federal government, wire fraud and theft concerning federal funds, and bribery.
