Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on Thursday attempted to walk back a comment he made earlier in the week calling for the elimination of the Electoral College, trying to align himself more closely with Vice President Kamala Harris’ position.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic Party’s vice presidential nominee, suggested Tuesday night that the Electoral College should be abolished during two West Coast campaign stops. Walz mentioned the concept during fundraisers in Seattle and in Sacramento while talking to donors in the deep blue areas.
