"Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Democrats 2024 candidate for vice president, is ending his bid for a third term as governor less than four months after launching a reelection campaign. Walz said in a statement Monday that he believes he would have won another term but decided that I can't give a political campaign my all after what he described as an extraordinarily difficult year for our state."
"Donald Trump and his allies in Washington, in St. Paul, and online want to make our state a colder, meaner place, Walz said, referring to the Trump administration withholding funds for the programs. They want to poison our people against each other by attacking our neighbors. And, ultimately, they want to take away much of what makes Minnesota the best place in America to raise a family."
Tim Walz will not seek a third term as Minnesota governor, ending his reelection bid less than four months after launching the campaign. He believed he would have won another term but concluded he cannot give a political campaign his all after an extraordinarily difficult year for the state. Walz cited ongoing investigations into fraud in state child-care programs and said President Donald Trump and his allies have used the issue as a political cudgel, withholding funds and fomenting division. Walz warned those actions aim to make Minnesota a colder, meaner place and to undermine what makes the state strong for families.
