Vice President Kamala Harris has selected who she thinks would best serve as her Vice President should she win in 2024. After more than a week of speculation and drama surrounding multiple candidates, the Harris campaign has announced that Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota will be on the 2024 ticket alongside her. The news comes after several black suburbans were spotted leaving his residence in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Monday. Walz has been governor of Minnesota since 2019, having won election in 2018 and re-election in 2022. He was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2008, where he served until he ran for governor. Prior to that, he served in the National Guard after enlisting in 1981 at age 17. He eventually achieved the rank of command sergeant major and became the highest-ranking retired enlisted soldier to be elected to Congress. Harris and her running mate are set to make their first public appearance together in Philadelphia on Tuesday. The campaign is hoping that the running mate choice will keep key swing areas in play and bring them back toward the Democrats after months of them trending toward former president Donald Trump, Harris's opponent in November. There are less than 100 days until the election, and current polling has the race in a dead heat. Both candidates are preparing their ground operations to key swing states in order to secure the electoral votes they need in order to win the White House in November.
