Kamala Harris decided on her running mate, Tim Walz
Vice President Kamala Harris has selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to be her vice presidential running mate, four sources tell CBS News, tapping a Midwestern Democrat to join her on the ticket heading into November's election.
"We are going to build a great partnership. We are going to build a great team. We are going to win this election," she wrote.
Harris highlighted Walz's background and record as governor of Minnesota, including signing legislation to provide paid family and medical leave for families in the state, protecting the right to abortion after the reversal of Roe v. Wade and enactment of legislation requiring universal background checks for gun purchases.
"As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he's delivered for working families like his," she wrote on X.
A source familiar with Harris' conversation with Walz said she told him that they're the underdogs in the race, and there is a lot of work to do. Harris and Walz will campaign in all seven battleground states in the coming days, beginning with an appearance in Philadelphia on Tuesday, Walz's first event as Harris' running mate. Walz will officially receive Secret Service detail once he lands in Philadelphia, sources familiar with the situation.
Kamala Harris Selects Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz As Running Mate, Calls Him “A Battle-Tested Leader”
Tim Walz, the twice-elected governor of Minnesota, has been chosen by Vice President Kamala Harris as her running mate in the 2024 presidential election.
“Tim is a battle-tested leader who has an incredible track record of getting things done for Minnesota families,” Harris said in a statement to supporters Tuesday. “I know that he will bring some principled leadership to our campaign, and to the office of the vice president.”
“It’s the honor of a lifetime to join Kamala Harris in this campaign,” Walz wrote on X. “I’m all in. Vice President Harris is showing us the politics of what’s possible. It reminds me a bit of the first day of school.”
Walz, 60, comes from a state that Democrats are widely expected to win, but his folksy charm and non-Ivy League roots vaulted him to the top of the veepstakes in the past week. He’s also been a choice of progressives in the party. Boosters of the former schoolteacher who served in the National Guard said he would help bolster the party’s standing among working-class voters, as he grew up in rural Nebraska and later lived in a small Minnesota town.
A former member of the House of Representatives who was first elected governor in 2018, Walz nevertheless did not have the same national profile as other VP contenders, including Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ). Like other contenders, Walz did a wave of public appearances and media interviews, but his recent description of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance as “weird” took off as a Harris campaign talking point.
Two other Minnesotans have served as vice president: Hubert Humphrey, under President Lyndon Johnson, and Walter Mondale, under President Jimmy Carter. Humphrey and Mondale each later won the Democratic nomination for president but lost in the general election.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, called Walz “wonderful.”
“To characterize him as left is so unreal,” she said. “He is right down the middle. He’s a heartland of America Democrat.” “He has a great vision for our country. It’s about working class families, rural America, it’s about our veterans.”
