House Democrats hone in on Tim Walz for Harris ticket
As Vice President Harris weighs her choice for running mate, House Democrats are increasingly advocating for a former colleague: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
The amiable Walz was not only popular on Capitol Hill, but he also had the distinction of being the highest-ranking enlisted soldier in the history of Congress — a status that endeared him to Pentagon supporters in both parties.

As Former President Jimmy Carter approaches 100 years old, he told his family this week that his goal is to “make it to vote for Kamala Harris” for President. I couldn’t love this amazing man any more than I already do. 💙🙏
I am enthusiastically voting for @KamalaHarris/{Name to be Determined}.
The choice she makes will be the right one.
So get on board, we're not going back.
#HarrisAndWhoeverSheChooses2024 ☑️🗳️
Vice President @KamalaHarris is a proud mom of two remarkable stepchildren—and so am I. @CaptMarkKelly and I were trying to have a baby through IVF before I was shot and that dream was stolen from us. To suggest we are somehow lesser is disgraceful.
Tonight, I am proud to have earned the support needed to become our party’s nominee.
Over the next few months, I'll be traveling across the country talking to Americans about everything on the line. I fully intend to unite our party and our nation, and defeat Donald Trump.
Kamala Harris will be the next President of the United States. I pledge my full support to ensure her victory in November.
Now more than ever, it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy.
Let’s get to work.
Millions voted for Biden/Harris as one ticket—in 2020 & again in the primary.
A Vice President exists to step in when a President steps down.
Dems need to follow the succession plan that’s in place or never complain again that their opponents undermine democracy.
The contrast in this race could not be clearer and the road to victory in November runs right through Pennsylvania – where this collective work began.
I will do everything I can to help elect @KamalaHarris as the 47th President of the United States.
When a President steps down, the VP steps up. If Dems can focus on agenda to address poverty, low wages, access to healthcare, women’s & voting rights, VP Harris can unite & energize a broad electorate.
On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as President of the United States and for his decades of service to our country.
I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination.
