Harris surrogates Eric Holder, Gwen Walz fan out in Wisconsin for campaign stretch run

Just under a month out from the election, Democratic surrogates visited Wisconsin's two largest cities to rally volunteers and warn voters that Vice President Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz are in a tight race in Wisconsin with former President Donald Trump and Sen. JD Vance.

Gwen Walz, the wife of Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz, spoke with volunteers in Madison, telling them that in the next 27 days, their volunteer work calling voters and knocking doors is more important than ever.

"I know this is hard to believe, especially in this county, but Tim and Kamala are still the underdogs in this race," she said. "I feel confident that we can win and I feel confident that we will win because we have you."

Walz said that up until her husband received the call from Harris asking him to run alongside her, she had been out with her local Democrats knocking on doors in Minnesota. She said she recognizes that the work isn't easy, but it's necessary to have tough conversations with voters, both decided and undecided.
