Watch: Walz gives remarks from North Carolina

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), Vice President Harris’s running mate, was in North Carolina as the state kicks off early voting Thursday.

Early voting began as the western part of the state is still working to recover from the impacts of Hurricane Helene , which hit late last month. The State Board of Elections in response approved a slate of emergency measures that included tweaks to voting rules.

The Democratic vice presidential nominee held an event earlier Thursday in Durham alongside former President Clinton.

With the campaign now in the homestretch, The Hill/Decision Desk HQ’s aggregate of polls shows former President Trump leading Harris by 1 point in the Tar Heel State, 48.9 percent support to 47.9 percent.

Walz’s remarks from Winston-Salem, N.C., were scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. EDT.
