Kamala Harris Chooses Tim Walz as Running Mate in US Presidential Election

Kamala Harris has selected Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate, aiming to attract working-class voters in swing states for a Democratic win in November.
Walz, chosen over other contenders like Senator Mark Kelly and Governor Josh Shapiro, will join Harris at a campaign rally in Philadelphia before touring key battleground states.
The decision follows President Joe Biden's exit from the race, positioning Harris as the Democratic nominee with Walz expected to appeal to moderate and rural voters.
Walz, a former high school teacher and National Guard member, has gained national attention for his critiques of Trump's VP nominee JD Vance, especially on social media.
Harris's campaign has gained momentum since Biden stepped aside, narrowing the polling gap with Trump and increasing fundraising efforts ahead of the Democratic National Convention.
