2024 election updates: Obama criticizes comic’s Puerto Rico remarks at Trump’s rally


Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz delivered a focused message that aimed to rally young voters in the crowd as he stumped for Vice President Kamala Harris in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Monday.

In an appearance near the University of Michigan campus, with a little over a week before Election Day, Walz delivered a short and thoughtful speech boosting his running mate’s candidacy.

“Look, her first day — from a prosecutor to a district attorney to the attorney general of California to a United States senator to the vice president — Kamala Harris had that one client: the people,” Walz said.

He also, at times, tapped into his “coach” persona. “Now we’re moving this thing over the next eight days, an inch at a time, a yard at a time, one door at a time, one phone call at a time,” Walz said. “[Because] one of those door knocks, and one of those interactions — because one or two extra votes for precinct in the state of Michigan will make Kamala Harris the president the United States.”

Walz acknowledged head-on the anxiety that young, first-time voters may be feeling during this election cycle.

“Here’s the good news: If you’re feeling any of that anxiety, any of that nervousness, any of that worry, we’ve got the solution for you. Get out there and vote for Kamala Harris. I know I did it last Wednesday with my son, who voted [for] the first time, and it works,” he said to the crowd of largely students.

It was Walz’s first joint rally with Harris since their appearance in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the Democratic National Convention in August.
