A governor, former congressman and army veteran, Walz brings experience and a liberal record to the Democratic ticket.
Tim Walz may not be the most recognisable name in the politics of the United States.
But from Tuesday onwards, the Minnesota governor will be a leading figure in the presidential campaign as Vice President Kamala Harris’s Democratic running mate.
Harris, who has secured her party’s nomination for the November 5 polls, selected Walz as her VP pick, saying she was “proud” of her choice.
“As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he’s delivered for working families like his. It’s great to have him on the team,” Harris posted on X.
