Chicago 22 Aug, (V7N)- Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is set to officially accept the nomination as Kamala Harris's running mate on Wednesday, during the Democratic National Convention at Chicago's United Center. Walz, relatively unknown on the national stage, brings a relatable Midwestern appeal to Harris's campaign against Donald Trump. His speech is expected to focus on his personal journey and the campaign's commitment to protecting American freedoms and future prosperity.

Former President Bill Clinton praised Harris's choice of Walz, describing the ticket as embodying the American dream. Walz's wife, Gwen, will introduce him, and Grammy-winning musician John Legend will perform a tribute to Minnesota's own Prince. The convention, marked by unity and enthusiasm, has seen strong support for Walz, who has energized crowds with his appearances.

As Harris prepares for her keynote address on Thursday, the Democratic campaign is gaining momentum, with polls showing Harris edging ahead of Trump. The Harris-Walz ticket is aiming to build on this energy to secure victory in the upcoming election.
