Walz to attend 'Million Muslim Votes' summit
Democratic vice presidential nominee Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) will attend a Muslim American advocacy group's summit on Thursday in an effort to turn out voters as Vice President Harris works to win back Arab and Muslim supporters disenchanted with her party's ongoing support for Israel.
“Governor Walz’s participation underscores the significance of Muslim voters as over two million are expected to turn out in the 2024 election. This event marks the first time a Democratic Vice Presidential candidate will directly engage with the Muslim American community on this scale ahead of a critical election,” Emgage Action, the largest Muslim super PAC, wrote in a statement.
Walz will be joined by former House Rep. Andy Levin (D-Mich.), Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D), Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), and Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) at the Million Muslim Votes Summit. Harris's campaign also confirmed that Walz will be attending.
