A former Obama strategist has commended Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz for his proactive efforts to secure a spot on the ticket of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. David Axelrod, the chief strategist for former President Obama’s campaigns, lauded Walz for running what he described as the most aggressive campaign for the vice president position.
Reports suggest that Walz is among the contenders being considered by Harris for the vice-presidential role. Axelrod's praise came in the wake of a Politico report highlighting Walz's 'Midwest grit' and his strong candidacy.
