Vice presidential candidate Tim Walz paid a brief visit to Santa Barbara on the evening of October 6, attending a fundraiser at a private residence in Montecito on behalf of the Harris Victory Fund and showcasing his famed Midwestern appeal that has earned him the coveted spot on Kamala Harris’s presidential ticket.
As he bounced down the stairs of his Boeing 737 at Santa Barbara Airport around 5:20 p.m., Governor Walz gave the impression that he was just as excited to be in Santa Barbara as the swarm of Harris-Walz supporters on Hollister Avenue was to see him.
Greeted on the tarmac by a beaming Congressmember Salud Carbajal (CA-24) and his wife, Gina Carbajal, Walz embraced the Congressmember twice, before joining the motorcade to Montecito.
