“Just like Wisconsin, over in Minnesota, we believed in the second amendment,” said Walz, a 24, year veteran of the Army National Guard. “But we also believe in common sense gun violence laws.”
Pat Meyer and Lynn Lundeberg drove 90 miles to see their governor as the VP pick.
Meyer sees the two-term governor as a guy with common sense.
“If you’re ever around Tim, he knows he has to give sometimes on issues, he may have to negotiate and arrive at some conclusion but in general he’s pretty happy about the whole thing,” said Meyer. “He’s not a curmudgeon.”

She’s not alone – thousands waited in the summer sun to see Harris and Walz.
“We will fight continue to fight for affordable housing, affordable health care, affordable child care, and paid leave,” said Harris. “And understand in this fight – as Tim Walz says, we are joyful warriors.”
Nine out of 10 voters say they don’t know much about Tim Walz – but with campaign rallies like this one, and 90 days to go until Election Day, the race has been reset and it looks like it will be another close one in Wisconsin.
