Minnesota Governor Tim Walz emphasized the security and fairness of the country's election systems during a speech in Wisconsin. He assured supporters that the United States has the most secure elections globally and encouraged them to participate in the voting process.

Walz urged individuals to cast their ballots and bring others from the community to vote, expressing confidence that Vice President Kamala Harris would emerge victorious based on the votes. He reiterated his belief in the integrity of the election systems, stating that the votes would determine the outcome.

These remarks by Walz come amidst ongoing claims by former President Donald Trump and his Republican allies regarding the vulnerability of election systems to fraud. Despite the political climate, Walz refrained from directly mentioning Trump during his speech in La Crosse, Wisconsin, aligning with Harris' approach of not engaging in direct references to the former president during her recent campaign rally in Michigan.

During his address, Walz criticized what he referred to as 'Donald Trump's abortion ban' and highlighted differences between Trump's campaign and Harris' vision for the country. He also took a broader swipe at Republicans, accusing them of failing to uphold their professed values and insinuating a desire to overly associate with Trump.
