As Harris and Walz entered the event together, Harris made the following statement: “Since the day that I announced my candidacy, I have been on a mission to find a partner who can assist in the construction of this enhanced future.” Our country needs a leader who can help us move ahead and bring our people together. Someone who advocates for the middle class. A patriotic individual who shares my conviction in the exceptional promise that the United States of America holds, which is a promise of liberty, opportunity, and justice not just for some but for everyone.

“So Pennsylvania,” she said, “I’m here today because I’ve found such a worthy leader: Governor Tim Walz of the wonderful state of Minnesota!”

Harris told stories about his time as a public educator and high school football coach, including an anecdote about a time when one of the only openly gay students at his school approached Walz, who was the coach at the time, about wanting to start a Gay-Straight Alliance. Harris was speaking about Walz’s resume, which included his time at the United States Capitol and the Minnesota Governor’s Residence.

Tim understood the message that it would convey to have a football coach become engaged at a period when it was difficult to find acceptance for kids who identified as LGBTQ. “As a result, he agreed to serve as the faculty adviser for the organization,” said Harris. “He is the kind of person who makes everyone feel like they belong, and then he inspires them to dream big,” said the speaker. Additionally, he will be the type of vice president that he describes. This is the type of vice president that the United States of America needs.

When Harris was nearing the conclusion of her presentation, she compared her running mate and J.D. Vance, who was Donald Trump’s choice for vice president.

“In his state, he has been a model chief executive, and with his experience, I’m telling you, Tim Walz will be ready on day one,” she said to cheers. “I’m speaking from personal experience.” “When you compare his resume, shall we, to Trump’s running mate… well, some might say it’s like a matchup between the varsity team and the JV squad.”

After making a joke about the vice presidential candidate of the Republican Party, Harris became more serious and said, “[Walz] and I, we both know the vast majority of people in our country have so much more in common than what separates them.”

“This is the promise I have made to you,” she added. “Our campaign will reach out to everyone, from those living in red states to people living in blue states; from the middle of the country to the coast; in rural, urban, suburban, and tribal areas. The campaign that we are doing is being conducted on behalf of all Americans, and if we are elected, we will rule on behalf of all Americans.
