ST. PAUL, MN (trfnews.i234.me) – As the 2024 presidential race heats up, Minnesota finds itself in the political spotlight. Former President Donald Trump and Vice Presidential Nominee JD Vance are set to rally in St. Cloud, a strategic move in a state traditionally dominated by Democrats. Hamline University Professor David Schultz suggests that this rally could force Democratic efforts, led by Vice President Kamala Harris, to defend the state, which hasn’t seen a Republican presidential victory since 1972.
Simultaneously, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been mentioned as a potential vice-presidential candidate for Harris. Walz acknowledged the speculation but refrained from confirming whether he is actively being vetted. He expressed his commitment to supporting the Democratic campaign and emphasized his focus on his gubernatorial duties.
