Democratic Party People who have been vetting Vice President Kamala Harris as a potential running mate are praising her choice after Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s nomination was announced on Tuesday.
The positive comments came as some Republicans who supported former President Trump’s presidential campaign suggested on social media that Walz’s selection would hurt Democrats’ hopes of retaining the White House.
They also suggest that Democrats, who may be disappointed by the rejection, are putting party unity ahead of personal feelings.
“Tim Walz is a very effective governor and a pleasure to work with,” transportation Secretary of State Pete Buttigieg wrote on the social media site X.

“I’m excited about the victories his Midwestern voice, military experience and common-sense values will bring us, and excited about what a Harris-Walz administration will deliver for Americans,” Buttigieg said.

Tim Waugh Ertz is a very strong addition to the campaign and will help Kamala make progress” as our country moves forward. “
