I don't think anyone was deterred from voting for Hillary because of Tim Kaine, but I do think she could've chosen someone else who would have brought in more votes.

He was boring.  He lost the VP debate to Mike Pence.  I think he was a weak choice for VP who added basically nothing to a candidate who could have benefitted greatly from a running mate who was A) something other than the standard straight white male, B) exciting and enthusiastic and non-bland, and C) from a swing state, which Virginia is not.

I don't know. But I do know he likely was a help in Clinton winning Virginia.

She would've won Virginia anyway.  Sure, he may have helped, but it'd have gone to her in the end.

She should've chosen someone who was from an actual swing state.
