Tim Walz Loses Home County to Trump

Vice President Kamala Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate in the vain hope that he would deliver key Midwestern states.

But amid the wreckage of her failed campaign, new numbers show Walz could not even get the county where he lives into the Harris column.

President-elect Donald Trump won 49.6 percent of the votes in Blue Earth County, where Walz’s family has lived for more than 20 years. Harris was at 48.3 percent, according to the New York Post.

In 2020, President Joe Biden won the county with 51 percent of the vote against 46.5 percent for Trump, according to Politico.

Walz’s selection has been cited as a possible reason Harris lost.

Lindy Li, a member of the Democratic National Committee’s National Finance Committee and Pennsylvania commissioner, said selecting Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro instead might have rescued the campaign, Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich posted on X.

“Tim Walz was a bad choice of running mate, Shapiro would have carried the blue wall,” Heinrich quoted Li as saying, referring to the northern states of Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania that have often carried Democrats to victory.

Walz ran into headwinds amid allegations of fabricating his National Guard record.

Trump’s showing was part of a nationwide dominance that has him projected to emerge as the winner of the popular vote, according to The New York Times.

Trump received more than 72.6 million votes; Harris about 68 million votes.

The last Republican to win the popular vote was former President George W. Bush in 2004.

Because massive blue states such as New York and California are traditionally places where Democrats have a wide margin in the popular vote, a Republican winning the popular vote is considered unusual.

For example, in 2016, Democrat Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by 2.9 million votes over Trump, as noted by CNN. That year, Clinton’s margin over Trump in California was almost 4.2 million votes and in New York state was 1.7 million votes, according to The New York Times.

This year, according to The New York Times, Harris’s margin over Trump in deep-blue California — her home state — was only about 1.7 million votes, while her margin in New York state was about 900,000 votes.

    If I might be just real blunt.. i don’t think it would have mattered who the Democrats chose to run for President next term, because the outcome would have been the same. The majority of Americans are sick and tired of what this Administration has been doing over the past four years that just about totally destroyed our country. January can’t get here fast enough and depending on what the Trump Administration does over the next four years, could have far reaching consequences, in that it could be a very long time before we ever see another Democrat President.

  • These fucking moron democrats just can’t see what the fucking problem is I don’t give a fuck what bullshit story they are trying to sell but it ain’t working It was Harris She is a complete idiot Why is it that all she could ever do is talk shit about President Trump Oh her big deal was for sex change for all prisoners no matter what country She said she agreed with everything Biden did So why talk anymore It is not necessary because you have told us what you intend to do to bring us out of this tailspin that Biden and Harris are responsible for So she has told everyone that there is no hope All you have to do is drive around your towns and cities and see how many businesses that have had to close the doors for good These are all tallied to Biden and Harris end of the table They said their accomplishments and I thought wtf they don’t have any I said maybe they think fuck ups count too In that they do get very high marks They want us to do as they say but not as they do I think Pelosi would have been in favor of Togas but shit for brains Jerry Nadler was pissed because only baby bed sheets would fit him and he was tired of stars and balloons
