Vice President Kamala Harris’ selection of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate makes it clear Democrats aim to hold on to their “Blue Wall” of northern states in an effort to deny Republican Donald Trump the White House. #politics #kamalaharris #harris #timwalz #walz #minnesota #vicepresident
The trio of states — Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin — will likely be crucial to determining the election outcome. Walz is seen as a candidate who can mobilize progressives and working-class voters, whose support for President Joe Biden had weakened, to return to the Democratic fold in November.
The two-term Midwest governor was a latecomer to political life. Walz, 60, was born in small-town Nebraska, and at 17 enlisted in the Army National Guard, serving during the early years of the global War on Terror and rising to the rank of command sergeant major.
Walz was also a teacher, working in China before settling in Minnesota. He was a high school social studies teacher and football coach when he first ran for Congress in 2006, scoring a major upset as he unseated a six-term Republican incumbent.
