Harris taps Walz as her vice presidential pick

Published August 6, 2024 8:59am ET



Vice President Kamala Harris has picked Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) to be her running mate, fewer than 100 days before the 2024 election and four years to the week that President Joe Biden tapped her to become his No. 2.

“I am proud to announce that I’ve asked @Tim_Walz to be my running mate,” Harris wrote on social media on Tuesday. “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.”
