Tim Walz, Here’s Who Kamala Harris’ Deputy Is

Here it is, it will be at the end Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota, Kamala Harris’s running mate in the American elections in November. He, therefore, according to CNN, would be her official deputy.

His name had been circulating for days, bouncing along with that of Josh Shapirothe governor of Pennsylvania, and of Mark Kellygovernor of Arizona. And in the end he won: liberal, moderate, Tim Walz is 60 years old. Born and raised in a small town in Nebraska, he is married, has two children, has been a professor and is a retired military officer. His life has always been spent engaged in politics and his role as president of the Democratic Governors Association has highlighted him in this election campaign.

Her strong points? The defense of LGBTQI+ rights, protection for abortion, free school lunches, restrictions on guns and the legalization of marijuana.

The choice of Kamala Harris therefore rewards a governor from the Midwest, a strategic area for capturing the swing states ahead of the American elections in November.

After the official announcement, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will leave to campaign in some particularly contested states such as Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. And Trump in the meantime, as is his style, attacks: «An incompetent liberal».

But – you can bet – it will give him a hard time.
