ST. PAUL, Minn. — Governor Tim Walz said growing voter disenchantment with Israel’s military campaign in Gaza hurt President Biden in the Minnesota presidential primary. In the Super Tuesday election, Biden prevailed but almost one in five Minnesota Democrats voted “uncommitted.” Why? The Walz theory is that voters fault Biden for not reining back Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s military excesses. Voters are asking to be heard, Walz said in a CNN interview: “Their message is clear that they think this is an intolerable situation and that we can do more. And I think the president is hearing that.” Like Biden, Walz is a Democrat. The dissatisfaction manifested itself powerfully in the Michigan presidential primary last week when 101,000 Democrats voted “uncommitted.”
