Agreed. I should vote for him tomorrow, early and often. I think he would be easy to beat out in the American part of the state.
I’d love to cross over and vote in the Dem primary tomorrow. Erin Murphy, the Dem-endorsed candidate for Governor) is another product of the 4th and 5th CD’s. She won’t play well outside those areas either.
But out in Shakopee, we’re having a bitter GOP primary for state rep (HD 55A). We have a good chance at ousting a two-term GOP member who’s voted with the Dems way too many times. Also, we have the GOP primary for Governor. I’m not a big Pawlenty fan but I hold Jeff Johnson (and a number of his supporters) in low regard. Pawlenty, IMHO) has at least a chance of winning the Governor’s office. Johnson doesn’t.
