Vice President Kamala Harris chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate after President Joe Biden stepped aside. With just 16 days to decide, Harris selected the lesser-known Walz following his effective media tour, outshining other candidates with his relatability and direct approach.

Their choice reflects a strategic partnership, aiming to blend his Midwestern appeal with her evolving national image, as Harris bets on his charm to connect with American voters.
