What recent polling tells us about Tim Walz

A 71% majority of US adults have never heard of Walz or are unsure how to rate him – making him even less of a known quantity than Mark Kelly or Josh Shapiro. The poll, conducted August 1-4, finds that 17% of US adults view Walz favorably, with 12% viewing him unfavorably. CNN's David Chalian reports.

but where does he stand on shark attack vs electrocution? somebody please ask him it's very important

I just remember he was the guy who signed into law school lunches for all children just as Republicans lowered child labor protection in Arkansas.

Wrong CNN. The process is not building Walz up to people who don’t know him. The process is more of a discovery on what he has accomplished. No building up needed; his accomplishments speak for themselves.

Tim walz has to be the most likeable politician I have ever seen.

[TheRealJackMahoffer]

If providing free lunches to school children makes him a radical, lefty liberal, then call me a radical, lefty liberal. Imagine the horror of feeding kids!

[jomcgrath]

When I look at Walz, I see a man who is stable, sane, kind and wise. I think the whole is so hungry for more of those qualities. He just looks like someone who is reliable and kind. Good choice, Kamala!!!

[massonh]

Tim Walz is not weird, which is a HUGE plus!

[KarenMaxwell-bi]

After seeing him in Philadelphia speak I think he's a winner.

[ecpracticesquad]

MAGA was going to paint anyone Harris chose as “radical.” Their reaction and opinion is a moot point.

[ccpqypu]

Walz is a brilliant communicator and a guy who gets things done for working people

[jimknarr]

"America's Dad" is going to CRUSH the Hate Rallies coming from DonOld!

[sullen]

FINALLY a top Dem listens to the base of the party. Let's keep this energy

[pamelapeterson]

An educator, a veteran, an ag union member and an effective governor....nothing not to like about Walz.

[Dogman]

He is not Donald Trump and that is all I need to know.

[geewan]

Walz is authentic and genuine! I love this guy!

[thisismetoday]

Walz is younger than Brad Pitt.

Let that sink in.

[jimmyr]

Does Walz accept election results? If so then he's already light years ahead of both Trump and Vance!

[massonh]

Looking forward to the debate between Tim Walz and the weird guy.

A ticket of experience and hope vs a ticket of weird and grievance politics. Voting blue is the easiest choice imaginable
