Tim Walz: Historic 3rd Term Bid | Biography Flash

Tim Walz Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Tim Walz has been squarely in the national and state spotlight this week following his headline-making announcement that he is running for a historic third term as Minnesota’s governor. With a packed Minneapolis hall roaring in support on Friday, September 19—barely hours ago—Walz took the stage to launch his re-election campaign and set himself up to make Minnesota history as the first person to win three four-year terms since the state switched to this system six decades ago. According to CBS News, he declared “governing like good neighbors is not just what Minnesotans want from us; it is what they demand from us. Because we believe we’re One Minnesota.” Throughout the rally, Walz did not avoid hot-button issues, making clear that tackling gun violence is front and center after the shocking assassination of state representative Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, as well as a mass shooting at Annunciation. He vowed to use the “power of this office to help stop the bloodshed” and called for bipartisan courage, insisting some Republicans must help remove “weapons of war off our streets and out of our schools.”

Earlier this week on Tuesday morning, Walz kicked off a media blitz and posted a two-minute campaign video across his social media in which he affirmed “We’ve made historic progress in our state, but we’re not done yet. I’m staying in the fight—and I need you with me.” This message quickly spread, with outlets such as Fox News and MPR News highlighting Walz's sharpened critiques of Donald Trump and the GOP, as well as his appeal to Minnesota’s sense of resilience after a tumultuous year. He didn’t shy away from mentioning his time as the 2024 Democratic vice presidential nominee, noting how his brief but intense spell in the eye of national politics both raised his profile and brought tougher scrutiny of his record and personal biographical details.

Reporters have pointed out that Walz faces real challenges as he seeks this third term. His support in greater Minnesota has waned and opposition Republicans—like former state senator Scott Jensen, healthcare tech executive and Army veteran Kendall Qualls, and state rep Kristin Robbins—are sharpening their campaigns. Fox News and the Star Tribune note Walz now touts more than one million dollars in the bank, giving him the power of incumbency, but he will be “bucking history.”

On the public appearance front, beyond the campaign and statewide tour, Walz is scheduled as a featured speaker for the California Democratic Party’s 2025 State Convention on May 31 in Anaheim. Party leaders such as Rusty Hicks have lauded his history as a teacher, veteran, and champion for working families.

Despite a few controversies—including a highly publicized comparison between ICE agents and Nazi Germany’s Gestapo, for which he has refused to apologize—Walz is leaning into his reputation as a bold and sometimes blunt leader. On social media, Tim Walz has remained highly active, sharing updates on X, Instagram, and Facebook, echoing his messages of unity and hope while once again framing himself as a defender against “the chaos, corruption, and cruelty coming out of Washington.”
