When he ran against Mondale, who is from Minnesota.
Minnesota will vote for the DFL endorsed candidate. The only way my Republican vote for president would count is if all 50 States vote Republican. At which point it still doesn’t really matter who I vote for. As a Minnesota Republican the rest of the ballot is very important. Republicans hold the House and I hope we can keep it. Trump won’t help with that.
I think the reason Rubio came up here is he understood that the only way to stop Trump is to keep him from getting 1237 delegates before Cleveland. The Minnesota delegates who came out specifically to vote for Rubio might have stayed home if he hadn’t come here. Trump might have earned more delegates if Rubio hadn’t done such a good job campaigning here. Turnout was huge in the exurbs, and that is Chamber territory.
Would you be upset if Trump made a deal to give MN to Canada in exchange for Alberta?
