Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to be her running mate, wagering that a former red-district congressman with a progressive streak can help her win over working-class voters in battleground states needed to beat Donald Trump in November.
“The entire country is about to see why their friends from Minnesota can’t stop bragging about Governor Walz,” Minnesota DFL Party Chair Ken Martin said in a statement. “By picking a servant leader born and raised in a small town who has dedicated his career to protecting freedoms and lifting up working families, Vice President Harris has chosen the perfect foil for [Trump running mate] JD Vance and his politics of resentment.”
Minnesota has long been one of the best places in America to live. And the crazy part is they’re a fly over state. They’re who Nebraska could be if they stopped blaming costal States for everything and started implementing good policy. Minnesota is proof that the culture war is a big fat fucking distraction and that common sense governance can, in fact, work
On the contrary, that’s why it’s a great state; the cold builds so much character!
