They're all fantastic. I will assume she's done her homework, no matter who she chooses.

On edit: Did Mark Kelly think up Vladimir Futon? If so, I might change my vote.

but I voted for Walz because I love the videos of him and his daughter and although Pete is the smartest guy in the room, most Americans are looking at cute funny videos these days.

If it is anything like her roll out, she'll make a great choice.

It seems hard to go really wrong with any of them.

Do you DU'ers know your stuff or what!

I'd barely even heard of Tim Walz when I posted this poll. The more I learned, the more I like.

I'm thrilled with this choice (BTW, I voted for Mark Kelly in this poll - it seems like months ago).

overwhelmingly picked him as the top choice. Well done DUers.

Don’t think I’d joined DU as yet, but as it happens I’m from MN and Tim Walz is my Governor. I was actually hoping he wouldn’t get picked because I didn’t want to lose him. When it turned out to be Gov Walz, I couldn’t help being incredibly proud that he was choosen. I kinda suspected she’d pick him cuz he’s such an awesome guy.

But how on earth did you all come up with this pick?
