Jon McHenry’s comments in The Daily Caller on Governor Tim Walz’ record:
Jon McHenry, a GOP polling analyst and vice president at North Star Opinion Research, told the DCNF that Republicans would be wise to hit Walz for his record without overdoing it and distracting voters from Harris, who has her own past policy positions and a record serving as vice president in the Biden administration.
“I think he comes off as a likable guy, and the mainstream media and Democrats are going to lean into that. His record is going to be a problem, especially with the working-class voters in the Midwest. Republicans have to balance telling that story — exposing Walz on his record — with not getting obsessed with him at the expense of running against Vice President Harris,” McHenry told the DCNF. “Spending too much time on Walz gives Harris a longer runway without scrutiny, so Republicans will need to multitask, pointing out that his record is exactly what we would expect as the running mate for the most liberal senator during her time in the Senate.”
