Harris escoge al gobernador de Minnesota como compañero de fórmula

By Jordi Bou

August 7, 2024 - La selección de la vicepresidenta Kamala Harris del gobernador de Minnesota Tim Walzcomo compañero de boleta enfatiza el objetivo demócrata de retener a los votantesde la clase obrera en un esfuerzo por evitar que Trump llegue a la Casa Blanca.

The so-called blue wall states Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania will be critical to Democratic messaging in battleground states where the party will need to appeal to the white, working-class voters.

The three states were Democratic party strongholds until Trump clinched them in 2016, with U.S. President Joe Biden taking them back in 2020.

Walz’s experience in winning over rural voters could help the Democrats peel them away from Trump, particularly in the Midwest. The 60-year-old brings with him a folksy, plain-spoken and sharp-tongued approach to taking on the Republican opposition.
