VP Harris Selects Tim Walz as Running Mate
Vice President Kamala Harris has officially chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate for the upcoming presidential election. Walz, a two-term governor and former U.S. Representative, has a background in education and is known for implementing significant policies such as free school meals and paid family medical leave in Minnesota. However, his leadership during protests following George Floyd's murder and his pandemic response have garnered criticism.
