Are Most Americans Familiar With Gov. Tim Walz? Here's What a New Poll Shows.

On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris announced that radical left-wing Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota would be her running mate in the 2024 presidential election.

As Townhall covered, Walz supports abortion up til birth, transgender surgeries for children, socialism, among other things. When the Black Lives Matter militants rioted in his cities over George Floyd's death, Walz waited days to call in the National Guard. After the riots, Walz admitted that he failed at handling the riots. 

A new poll published Tuesday asked respondents if they were familiar with Walz and his record.

The new NPR/PBS News, Marist National poll reviewed by The Hill found that over 70 percent of respondents said that they did not know enough about Walz to have an opinion on him.

In the findings, 71 percent did not know enough about Walz to form an opinion on him. On the contrary, 17 percent of respondents had a favorable opinion of him and 12 percent of respondents viewed him unfavorably.

The same survey found that Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shaprio and Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly are better known among respondents. 

Reportedly, the poll found that 46 percent of respondents have a favorable opinion of Harris. Forty-four percent of respondents have a favorable opinion of Trump. Thirty-four percent have a favorable view of Sen. J.D. Vance, Trump’s running mate. 

The NPR/PBS/Marist survey was conducted Aug. 1-4 among 1,613 adults and has a margin of error of 3.3 percentage points.

In an interview on Tuesday, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed that Walz, who is a radical leftist is “right down the middle.”

As Townhall covered, Pelosi made the remarks on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” program.

“Tim Walz is wonderful. She [Harris] had many good choices among the six and certainly among the two. I’m a big fan of Gov. Shapiro. Tim Walz I know very well…to characterize him as left is so unreal. It’s just not what…He’s right down the middle. He’s a heartland of America Democrat,” Pelosi claimed.
