PHILADELPHIA - Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her newly selected vice-presidential running mate, Minnesota governor Tim Walz, campaigned for the first time together on Aug 6 in Philadelphia, kicking off a multi-day swing state tour aimed at introducing Mr Walz to the national stage.

US Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota governor Tim Walz at a campaign rally in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Aug 6.

Ms Harris, the US vice-president, announced her choice of Mr Walz earlier in the day, opting for a vice-presidential running mate with executive experience, military service and a track record of winning over the rural, white voters who have gravitated to Trump over the years. He has pushed a progressive agenda that includes free school meals, goals for tackling climate change, tax cuts for the middle class and expanded paid leave for workers.

“The biggest problem with the Tim Walz pick - it’s not Tim Walz himself. It’s what it says about Kamala Harris, that when given the opportunity she will bend the knee to the most radical elements of her party,” Mr Vance told reporters in Philadelphia earlier in the day. Mr Walz beat out Pennsylvania’s popular governor, Josh Shapiro, for the number two role. Mr Shapiro had faced sharp criticism from the left, especially progressive groups and pro-Palestinian activists, over his support for Israel and his handling of college protests sparked by the war in Gaza.
