Vice President Harris has chosen Minnesota Gov. Walz as her running mate to take on former President Trump in the November election, according a CNN report.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz speaks during a news conference for the Biden-Harris campaign discussing the Project 2025 plan during the third day of the 2024 Republican National Convention near the Fiserv Forum, Wednesday, July 17, 2024, in Milwaukee.
Walz, a two-term governor with a military and public school teaching background, has been chosen to be Harris’ No. 2. Walz has exploded onto the national political scene in the weeks since Harris became the likely nominee advocating on her behalf in interviews and has also received praise for turning a one-seat majority in the state’s senate into a springboard for progressive policies.)
Harris and her new running mate will start a seven-state battleground tour that begins in Philadelphia on Tuesday and winds through Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Arizona and Nevada this week. Another stop in Georgia was canceled due to the effects of Hurricane Debby. Her early events have drawn large crowds and helped spur acomes after she became the official Democratic presidential nominee on Monday as a virtual roll call of the party’s delegates wrapped up.
Her introduction to the race against Trump has flipped the race for the White House on its head again after athat recalibrated the election several times over. Biden’s poor debate performance inspired panic from Democratic voters and leaders and brought on an instant bump for Trump in polling in a race that had been mostly static for months.
