Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz, Minnesota Governor, tearfully waves to the crowd after accepting the nomination Wednesday, Aug. 21, at the United Center. In his speech, he thanked his former students, describing how before his first campaign for Congress in 2006, they returned an important lesson he hoped he had taught them: “the belief that a single person can make a real difference for their neighbors.”
Day three of the Democratic National Convention introduced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, to the country. With speakers like Oprah and former president Bill Clinton, and performances from Stevie Wonder, “freedom” — a key idea of the Harris-Walz campaign — emanated throughout the arena.
