The Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association board has switched its endorsements of Democrat candidates to Republican after one Democrat candidate was purportedly caught on video beating a piñata with the likeness of top police union official Bob Kroll.
Brian Peters, who serves as executive director of the police association, expressed concern over DFL caucus support of Thompson after he was identified as beating the Kroll effigy.
The endorsements that we rescinded, my issue was those candidates did not stand up to their leadership and put pressure on and ask why are we supporting a candidate who did this in Hugo, Peters said.
If this is the future of the Democratic Party, my organization is going to support elsewhere, he added.
Peters did not identify which Republicans were endorsed by the police group.
The development comes in the wake of President Donald Trump scoring two high profile endorsements from police unions: The Fraternal Order of Police and the Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York (PBA).
