STORYLINE:

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, who has won enough delegate votes to secure the Democratic presidential nomination, unveiled Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate on Tuesday.
   
"As a governor, a coach, a teacher, and a veteran, he's delivered for working families like his. It's great to have him on the team," Harris said on the X platform.
   
Walz, 60, previously served as a U.S. House Representative. He was elected Governor of Minnesota in 2018 and re-elected in 2022.
   
The choice of Walz creates a ticket that many Democrats have said would be "politically beneficial," according to The Washington Post. Harris, who spent much of her career in deep-blue California, "chose from a list of finalists populated by White men, including Walz, who have represented more competitive swaths of the country," the report said.
   
Harris, 59, served as District Attorney of San Francisco and Attorney General of California, before serving as a U.S. Senator.
