Kamala Harris has picked Tim Walz as her running mate for the presidential election
Harris is yet to make the official announcement, however BBC’s US partner CBS News has confirmed Walz is her pick Walz, the Minnesota Governor and a former high school teacher, will become vice-president if Harris beats Donald Trump in November.
Walz gained national attention for his strategy of calling Trump and JD Vance “weird”, a phrase Harris has adopted when talking about her rival.
The Harris campaign will be hoping Walz’s plainspoken and small-town Midwestern persona could appeal to independent and conservative voters.
Harris will officially introduce Walz as her running mate at a rally in Philadelphia tonight, then they will begin a tour of key battleground states.
