00:00Vice President Kamala Harris and her new running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, brought
00:05their campaign to Wisconsin Wednesday.
00:07In 90 days, the nation will know Coach Walz by a new title, Vice President of the United
00:16States of America.
00:19Walz, who previously served six terms in Congress, representing a rural district that voted for
00:23former President Trump in 2016, made his case to his fellow Midwesterners.
00:28Being a Midwesterner, too, I know a little something about commitment to people.
00:32The Wisconsin stop, along with one later in Detroit, comes as the latest CBS News Battleground
00:37tracker poll shows former President Trump with a one-point lead in Wisconsin, and tied
00:42with Harris in Michigan.
00:44Both are within the poll's margin of error.
00:46I think that it's super cool that they're going all lengths to reach everyone.
00:50While Governor Walz has been in public office for nearly 18 years, he's been relatively
00:54unknown on the national stage.
00:57Until now.
00:58I think he'll be a good fit.
00:59I'm still just doing my research on him, but from what I've heard so far, I like.
01:03During a campaign stop in Michigan Wednesday, Trump's running mate, Senator J.D. Vance,
01:08who is a Marine veteran, went after Walz's National Guard record.
01:12He has not spent a day in a combat zone.
01:14As the Harris-Walz ticket continues their Battleground state tour over the next few
01:19days, Vance will also be visiting those states, with the message that the Democratic ticket
01:23is too liberal.
