Among debate watchers, Walz remains the candidate who’s seen more positively and as more in touch with their needs and vision for the country. He was also narrowly seen as doing a better job than Walz of defending his running mate. Both men, the poll finds, are viewed by a majority of debate watchers as qualified to assume the presidency if needed. Debate watchers came away from the debate with roughly neutral views of Vance: 41% rated him favorably and 44% unfavorably. Results for the full sample of debate watchers have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 5.3 percentage points.

CNN —Vice President Kamala Harris has chosen Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota as her running mate, elevating the former teacher and Army National Guard veteran to join the Democratic ticket and help lead the party’s fight to defeat Donald Trump. The vice president held in-person interviews with Walz, Shapiro and Kelly on Sunday. In March, Walz accompanied Harris when she became the first sitting vice president to visit a clinic that performs abortions. During recent remarks at a “White Dudes for Harris” fundraiser, Walz made a rough-and-ready case for the vice president before would-be small-dollar donors.
