Harris picks Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, AP sources say

Seems like a good choice from where I am (which is, granted, the other side of the ocean). Republicans want to depict Democrats as dangerous extremists, but Walz comes across as a friendly dad, so that just won't stick. No one will care about his policy record, they'll just sound weird talking about that stuff.

hell YES Now I might be a bit biased because i've already voted for Walz twice, but he was 100% the right choice here. My read is that home state advantage does not matter that much, and Walz has shown that he is the right pick in every other way that matters.
