tim walz minnesota governor south carolina democrats.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will seek to energize activists at Democratic state conventions in South Carolina and California on Saturday. The party’s 2024 vice presidential nominee is working to keep up the high national profile he gained when Kamala Harris selected him as her running mate. Walz will keynote the South Carolina gathering in Columbia, traditionally a showcase for national-level Democrats and White House hopefuls. South Carolina held the first Democratic presidential primary of the 2024 campaign, and the state hopes for a repeat in 2028. But the national party organizations haven’t settled their 2028 calendars yet.
