Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, visited Raleigh, North Carolina, marking his first campaign stop in the state. He and Governor Roy Cooper visited a Cook Out restaurant, where they enjoyed milkshakes, and later stopped by a Harris-Walz campaign office to meet with supporters and volunteers. Walz emphasized North Carolina's strong economy and motivated the campaign staff to increase voter engagement. Additionally, Walz headlined a private fundraiser in Raleigh, which was attended by major Democratic donors. This visit highlights the importance of North Carolina in the upcoming election, as polls show a tight race between the Harris-Walz and Trump-Vance tickets.
