News in: Tim Walz has officially made un-expected decision on….

In recent weeks, the “uncommitted” movement has seen promise of a new path forward for Palestinians, thanks to Harris’ rise and her pick of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. The latter may be an especially attractive candidate: In the March primary, he praised the movement as “civically engaged” after around 45,000 Minnesotan voters cast protest ballots, enough to send 11 “uncommitted” delegates from the state to the convention. He also called the situation in Gaza “intolerable.”

But the lack of a cease-fire deal, arms embargo (which Harris still doesn’t support) or attempts to meet other public demands from uncommitted voters could be a real issue for the Harris-Walz ticket in all-important “Blue Wall” states such as Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. That was clear when pro-Palestinian protesters interrupted the vice president on consecutive days of her swing-state introductory tour.

In a statement to POLITICO, the Harris campaign said the vice president will continue to engage with the Arab, Muslim and Palestinian community members pushing to end the war in Gaza and fight to secure a cease-fire deal.

“As she has said, it is time for this war to end in a way where: Israel is secure, hostages are released, the suffering of Palestinian civilians ends, and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity, freedom, and self-determination,” a spokesperson said.
