Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris’ pick as her running mate, will need to introduce himself to the vast majority of Americans, according to recent polling. But while Walz is a virtual unknown, AP VoteCast data from his gubernatorial win in 2022 shows that he won with key demographics that Harris will hope to capture in the Midwest and outperformed Democrats nationally among white voters without a college degree. Jon Green, Duke University assistant professor of political science, joined Jeff Hamlin on the WPTF Afternoon News to discuss the positives and negatives of Walz being on the Democratic ticket.
