and running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz appear at the Fiserv Forum during a campaign rally in Milwaukee, Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2024. After receiving the blessing of former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama, the focus on the second to last day of the DNC shifts to Kamala Harris ' vice presidential running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz .
Walz wasn't widely known outside of Minnesota before Harris chose him to join her on the Democratic presidential ticket. But they clicked when the vice president interviewed him, and she was impressed by his record as a governor and congressman — and the splash he made on TV.
Reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ issues and racial equity are expected to be some of the policy areas that Democrats are trying to distinguish themselves on with Republicans.The Harris campaign is relying on several surrogates to make its case to voters — and Wednesday's speakers play into that strategy with a mix of big names and rising stars in the party.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a finalist to be Harris' running mate, will address the convention. Both are seen as ascendant in Democratic politics.
