Tim Walz takes stage with message of hope and freedom promising to defeat Trump and Vance in November election.
Tim Walz has formally accepted his nomination to be the Democrats vice presidential candidate in November’s US election, rallying the the party faithful in Chicago with a message of freedom and hope.
“It’s the honour of my life to accept your nomination for vice president of the United States,” Walz said on Wednesday, as he took to the stage at the end of the third day of the Democratic National Convention. “What all we’re all here tonight for one beautiful, simple reason. We love this country.”
Walz, the 60-year-old governor of Minnesota, was a relative unknown until Kamala Harris picked him as her running mate just over two weeks ago.
Walz talked of his upbringing in a town of just 400 people in Nebraska, his service with the National Guard and his experience as a teacher.
