She did it. She actually did it. I didn’t think she would do it, I didn’t think we could have nice things, but she actually did it: she picked the right candidate. Democrats have been campaigning great in the Presidential campaign for the first time since I was a kid.

As a white, male, Independent, this choice thrills me. I voted twice for old Trump, but he lost me on Jan 6th. I wasn't going to vote, but now I'm excited. I love she choose someone who can work with anyone, and not bring negativity. The GOP only seems to bring negativity now a days. I regret voting for Trump. I see the damage he caused in our nation. We must move away from Trump and MAGA Christian Nationalism. I'll vote Kamala. She brings hope.

I'm from Minnesota and I am crying I am so happy. I'm in my 60s.
CONGRATULATIONS GOVERNOR WALZ!!
CONGRATULATIONS AMERICA !! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

Tim Walz is GREAT!! I was in Minneapolis this May, at a renewable energy conference, where Walz came and spoke to us. He FULLY supports solar and wind energy, and EV's.

Tim Walz has a golden characteristic called empathy. He 'gets' other people. He knows their issues and works to alleviate their pain. He and Kamala will work well together, and together they will work towards a better future for all Americans.

Having to defend feeding children at schools and getting workers paid sick leave is going to be a good problem to have.

[WildFlowersssss]

Minnesota here. Get ready for Great things to happen, America! He makes meaningful things happen in the most delightful ways, no matter how much opposition he has coming at him! 💙

Tim Walz knows when he needs to go Hard; he is a 25-year Army Veteran/National Guard. But he also knows when to just be Peaceful and not constantly go after Peoples' jugular! We need good Governance!

[boofuldreamer]

I live in Minnesota. He’s wonderful & has done SO many good things for our state. He is unassuming, down to earth & a genuine human being. He a great pick.

Too liberal?
Giving school kids lunch?
Good healthcare for everyone?
Good economy and infrastructure?
Equal rights for women?
If that’s too liberal then I like it

Congratulations Governor Walz, you've led our state here in Minnesota, getting a ton accomplished. I love your decency, down to earth grounding manner. I am so excited for you and for America.

I'm all in for Tim! He's your kid's favorite teacher and coach, has a sense of humor, is not too much of the typical politician, is human and warm! Josh Shapiro needs to stay in Pennsylvania to protect that state from MAGA! Great pick on Kamala's part.

🎉I’m a teacher, anyone who gave all kids in his state free school lunches is OK BY ME!! ‼️If you’ve never had a kid come to you in tears admitting they’re hungry and there’s no food at home, you might fight me on that and that’s fine. But I don’t need to have kids to tell you the deep knife in your heart and the sleep you lose worrying about a child every single time that happens. It takes a village and I don’t mind being part of that village when it feeds children. ❤ So congrats to Gov. Walz!!! 🎊🎊

For the sake of all of us who live in the 'rest of the world', please wake up America and vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz!! Or we're all doomed. 🇦🇺🇦🇺

[michael-kdts]

I think Tim Walz is an honest man. Good choice!
