Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on Sunday discussed the balancing act of campaigning for vice president while still serving as governor, crediting a “good team” for helping him do both.

“We appointed three great judges last week in Ramsey County, as you saw. Every night, we go through all of the decision memos and um — meeting with the commissioners. I stay updated throughout the day, and I’m in and out,” he said.

Walz was visiting the Minnesota State Fair, where he greeted supporters, sampled fair food and served ice cream at what he called the best state fair in the country. He was accompanied by his wife, Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz, and his daughter, Hope. 

After sampling pork chop on a stick and serving ice cream, Walz met with the “Princess Kay of the Milky Way,” the winner of the Midwest Dairy Association’s annual Minnesota Dairy Princess Program competition.

Walz and the contest winner looked at butter sculptures made of past winners. He concluded his visit by shaking hands and taking selfies with hundreds of fairgoers, who chanted his name intermittently throughout his visit.
