Kamala Harris election campaign continued on Twitch this weekend, with vice president candidate Tim Walz streaming Crazy Taxi.Over the weekend, Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz joined Democratic politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitch, where the pair played American football game Madden 25 before Walz spoke about the importance of engaging with the world of gaming (via Washington Post).“I see gamers, many times, are on the front end of this.

It’s a collaborative community and they’re competitive. … I see many folks who are cynical about this. I hear it all the time, ‘I’m just not into politics.’ Too bad!

Politics is into you.”When Harris launched her Twitch channel earlier this year, a spokesperson said it was part of a campaign strategy to reach young voters who may be disaffected by modern politics.During the half hour stream, the pair also discussed the war in Gaza and the need for social security benefits before playing arcade stunt racing game Crazy Taxi. “Back in the old days, I had that Sega Dreamcast.

I was teaching school so I thought Grand Theft Auto was a little harsh but there was a game similar to it – Crazy Taxi,” he explained before playing the game. “Is that how you drive in real life,” asked Ocasio-Cortez as Walz struggled with the controls. “Is that a smart ass comment about New York,” he replied.New Vice Presidents tier list https://t.co/ab2zxkC9hG pic.twitter.com/zlJkvhZTqz— hannah!!!!!!
