Poll: Minnesota Republican Scott Jensen Leads Governor’s Race
breitbart.com ^ | 10/20/22 | PAUL BOIS

A shock poll shows Republican Dr. Scott Jensen leading his Democrat opponent Tim Walz in the Minnesota governor’s race.

Surveying 1,091 likely general election voters between October 17-19 with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percent, the Alpha News/Trafalgar Group poll shows that Jensen narrowly leads Walz by less than one point – 46.3 percent to 45.8 percent. Considering that Walz is the incumbent governor, the narrow lead offers a positive indication that voters still on the fence may pull the lever in Jensen’s favor come election day.

In the attorney general race, Republican candidate Jim Schultz now leads Democrat Keith Ellison by nearly five points.

Should Minnesota swing Republican for the midterm, it will be a dramatic shift after the state overwhelmingly voted for Joe Biden in 2020 despite the intense rioting that rocked Minneapolis in the wake of George Floyd’s murder at the hands of Officer Derek Chauvin. As Breitbart News reported, the shift in Minneapolis likely stems from an overwhelming frustration with rising crime rates:

I don’t see how Minnesota can possibly re-elect a complete bum like Walz after he presided over the destruction of half of Minneapolis. I mean, other then outright voter fraud.

Two styles of reporting in play these days:

“All is right with the world, as experts predict that a Democrats will win this race ...”

“A shock poll indicates that a Republican could conceivably win the race against a highly-qualified Democrat ...”

big Somali population-
we got ihlan omar

we got Keith Ellison (a farakhan muslim extremist)

very liberal twin city population

And the media upholds ALL democrats while bashing repubs

Hope we can get a sane change

I simply cannot believe Democrats will not somehow eek out a fraud election for their governor in Minnesota.

Minnesota “Twin cities” have been in an impenetrable bubble of moronic wokeness for decades.

I don’t know much about Jensen, but I can’t imagine he is all that conservative, which is UNelectable in this insane age, especially not in a deep blue state.

The Somali angle is ludicrous. Ilhan Omar represents a House district that is about 65% white. She doesn’t represent that district because of Somali/Muslim support. She represents it because it is filled with retarded white people.

It may take finding ballot boxes in the trunk of more than one vehicle this time.

They try to paint everyone as extreme.

They are like venomous rattlesnakes. I am an an Independent, so got a flyer from this vulgar incumbent Democrat they just stuck my district with. His name is O’Halleran, and I once heard the press say, “Well, he’s a relative moderate.” I’m beginning to think “moderate” means white Democrat, but still left of Stalin.

So this flyer has Nazi and confederate flags all over and says Eli Crane is an exteeeemist and will stop women from getting abortions. It was so hilarious, I kept it to show my wife. They just sent the same damn one on Blake Masters last month.

Wow!
If OR and MN is in play, Nov 8 is going to be much bigger than 2010.
We can only pray that Americans have finally woke up from their slumber.

“the state overwhelmingly voted for Joe Biden in 2020” That’s BS. I’m convinced Trump actually won MN but was cheated.

I have been getting the same flyers. There was also one that was made to “look as it was from Kari’s campaign. It was sent out from the DNC.

Maybe the people of this country are coming to their senses.

We can hope and pray that such is happening.

However, with all the democrats that are refusing to debate their GOP opponent, I’m worried that they are confident that the “fix is in”. I hope the GOP has plenty of poll-watchers in place to make sure none of the shenanigans of 2020 happens again. We need to have watchers in every precinct, along with attorneys on call to file emergency petitions to stop the same type of cheating that happened two years ago.
