DES MOINES, Iowa — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz stood before hundreds of Iowans on Friday and admitted he doesn’t have all the answers about issues facing the country. Walz is back on the road to talk to voters, but he’s no longer a vice presidential candidate. He isn’t any kind of candidate, at least not for now.

The Minnesota governor is kicking off a series of town hall meetings in Republican-represented congressional districts across the Midwest, as Democrats cite the need for them after Congressional Republicans were instructed to halt their town halls.
