Governor Jared Polis to Speak at Democratic National Convention

Gov. Jared Polis will speak at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night, a spokesman confirmed, the same evening that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will appear on the convention stage.

Walz, who was tapped as Kamala Harris’ running mate earlier this month, will speak after former President Bill Clinton, according to the New York Times. The full lineup — including Polis’ expected time slot — will be released by the DNC on Wednesday afternoon.

Polis, who served in Congress with Walz, introduced his Minnesota counterpart at a fundraiser in Denver last week, Walz’s first solo trip since joining the Democratic ticket. Polis has been an enthusiastic and public supporter of Harris since President Joe Biden announced in July that he would end his reelection bid.
