He’s a Republican... they’re saying the daughter’s husband did it, but you can’t help but wonder if this is the Left’s way of simply removing Republican candidates.

From the lin&k:

Hallie Marie Tobler, the daughter of Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Jeff Johnson, was found stabbed to death in her St. Cloud, Minn., home on Saturday, Feb. 7

Officers identified her husband, Dylan Michael Tobler, as the prime suspect, suggesting that he will face criminal charges once he is treated for apparent self-inflicted stab wounds
Johnson dropped out of the crowded 2026 governor’s race on Monday, Feb. 9, “out of respect for his family and the the enormity of this loss,” the Minnesota Republican Party announced

Hallie Tobler was the daughter of Republican candidate for governor Jeff Johnson, a former St. Cloud City Council member. The Republican Party of Minnesota issued a statement Monday saying it is “heartbroken by the tragic loss.”

48 hours earlier —

“Look, I know you have a good shot at the primary, but we want you to drop out.”
“That’s absurd. What are you going to do if I don’t?”
“Something bad. Just drop out. Last chance.”
“Forget about it. I’m staying in this race.”

There is no mention of a third party doing the stabbing. I wonder why.

Since you simply did a copy / paste, I'd suggest copy / pasting the entire "Need To Know" foreword, next time you post from "People".

Alternately, the 1st sentence of the article is helpful, given the article title :

Hallie Marie Tobler, the daughter of Republican lawmaker Jeff Johnson, was killed in a violent incident at her St. Cloud, Minn., apartment over the weekend, authorities shared

It is always helpful when posting to stop and think a minute about what content is most useful to put in the "Body of Thread" and "Body of Comment".
