Kamala Harris has picked Tim Walz as her running mate for the presidential election.
The Minnesota Governor and former high school teacher will become vice-president if Harris beats Donald Trump in November.
Walz gained national attention for his strategy of calling Trump and JD Vance “weird”, a phrase Harris has adopted when talking about her rival.
The Harris campaign will be hoping Walz’s plainspoken and small-town Midwestern persona could appeal to independent and conservative voters.
The Trump-Vance campaign has issued a statement, calling Walz a “dangerously liberal extremist”.
Harris will officially introduce Walz as her running mate at a rally in Philadelphia tonight, then they will tour key battleground states.
