Vice President Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, according to sources speaking with the Associated Press. Harris and Walz will kick off their first campaign tour with a rally in Philadelphia on Tuesday evening at 5:30pm, where she will formally introduce Walz as her running mate. The campaign tour will include stops in seven key battleground states: Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada. These states are crucial for securing electoral votes and are expected to play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of the upcoming election.
Tim Walz served in the Army National Guard for 24 years, achieving the rank of master sergeant. After retiring from the military, Walz became a high school teacher and football coach in Minnesota. His political career began with his election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2006, representing Minnesota’s 1st congressional district until he became governor in 2019.
As governor, Walz has faced significant challenges and controversies. His handling of the George Floyd protests in 2020, including the National Guard’s response and the law enforcement approach to the unrest, has been heavily criticized. Critics argue that Walz allowed BLM rioters, arsonists, and looters to cause extensive damage in Minnesota. Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton remarked on X (formerly Twitter), “Tim Walz is a perfect choice for Kamala Harris. He let BLM rioters, arsonists, and looters rampage through his state and she encouraged donations to the bail fund for the few who were arrested.”

Walz’s administration also came under fire for its oversight failures in the Feeding Our Future fraud case. A report from Minnesota’s legislative auditor found that Walz’s administration “failed miserably in its duty to properly oversee millions of federal dollars it administered to nonprofits to feed children.” The report indicated that Walz’s incompetence “created opportunities for fraud,” with the case involving the theft of $250 million in federal funds meant to help feed hungry children.
Additionally, Walz’s support for progressive policies has drawn criticism. He signed legislation to ensure minors from across the country could get sex-change operations in Minnesota and mandated that schools stock period products in boys’ bathrooms. These actions have led to accusations of far-left radicalism and incompetence in governance
And he created a “snitch line” to turn neighbor against neighbor.
