Tim Walz Considering Run For U.S. Senate After VP Loss: Report

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a key figure in the unsuccessful Harris-Walz 2024 presidential campaign, may be eyeing a future in Washington, according to a new report.

Walz is reportedly considering a Senate bid in 2026 following Democratic Sen. Tina Smith’s announcement that she will not seek re-election, Politico reported, citing an unnamed source.

Alternatively, Walz could opt for a third term as Minnesota governor in 2026, as USA Today noted, as Minnesota has no term limits for its governors.

If Walz enters the race, he is expected to face competition, Politico reported.

Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan hinted on social media that she intends to run for the seat, with a formal announcement forthcoming. Meanwhile, Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar has not ruled out a potential bid.

“Congresswoman Omar will be talking with Minnesotans about the future of the Senate seat and DFL party in Minnesota,” a representative for her said.
