Former President Donald Trump may have a big chance to turn this blue state, red.
According to new polls, Trump is in the lead to secure Minnesota, resulting in the Biden campaign panicking over the president’s diminishing chances to win in November.
An Emerson College Polling/The Hill state poll found that Trump holds a slight advantage over President Joe Biden in six swing states and tied in Minnesota— at 45 percent each.
“In our first polling in several key swing states since Trump’s conviction last month, there has been little movement,” Spencer Kimball, the executive director of Emerson College Polling said.
A recent memo from the Trump campaign revealed that it is expanding ground to Minnesota after it signed eight leases for "Trump Force 47" offices in Minnesota. 47 signifies the number of the next president should Trump win.
“The addition of Minnesota and Virginia to the electoral map opens up at least 12 additional pathways to 270," the memo said, the number of electoral votes needed to win.
If Trump takes home the gold in Minnesota, he would be the first Republican to win the state since Richard Nixon in 1972.
In 2016, the former president came close to securing the state but lost it to his Democrat challenger Hillary Clinton.
Pollster Frank Luntz said that media undermining Trump’s triumph in Minnesota shows that the media doesn’t understand what is happening in the political landscape regarding polls.

I’ll believe it when I see it.
Minnesota is insanely leftist.
The problem with Minnesota is all of the refugees Obummer planted there along with Michigan and other states. If it were not for the cities where they are, there would be a big difference.
[“I don’t think the media understands exactly what’s going on right now,” Luntz said. “Yes, Trump dropped a few points after being found guilty on 34 felony accounts. But remember this: that would have destroyed any candidate as recently as 10 years ago. And the fact that Donald Trump is still even with, or in some cases, leading Joe Biden after being found guilty of 34 felonies?”]
...until he wasn't.
Good thing for Franken those missing ballots were found during the recount, ya' know.
===========================================================
From a November 4, 2020 thread on FreeRepublic:
Spent considerable time on the phone with Richard Baris who has been up all night watching these votes.
(I signed off last night thinking both WI and MI were secure!)
1) Baris thinks WI is legit, that the blue areas overperformed the way Cankles should have in 2016.
2) He thinks MI is suspect. Overcoming a 600,000 lead with utter top-end performance out of absentees? Baris recommends WH demand a re-canvass. Passed this rec along to WH.
3) PA: Baris thinks the Trump lead, especially in areas left to count, is insurmountable even for Philly Phraud. WH needs to be on top, but should hold PA.
4) He's concerned about Cobb and Fulton. But our own Lazamataz has run the numbers and Baris agrees Trump holds GA by 40,000.
5) AZ: both Gov. Douchey and Kelli Ward think we have the votes. Douchey has so informed the WH. WH thinks we hold AZ by 30,000.
GA, AZ, PA=win.
6) NV: although only 7,000 lead for Bitme right now with almost 1/3 outstanding, Baris is concerned that most of these are Clark absentees. It would be poetic justice to lose AZ, but win with NV.

Found in the trunk of a Buick, if I remember correctly.
This is very anecdotal, but I think even the liberal idiots in Minnesota have had enough. The Somalis taking over in Minneapolis and then the NEW flag for Minnesota has made a lot of relatives who were squishy Chrisitan liberals look around in wonderment. They might still be saying Biden, but at the table they are wanting the pain to stop, and the flag change has really cut into that.
Babbitt and the MN Iron Range have since turned red.
Sounds like it was red back then, because Al had to steal it.
In the bag? Give me a break.
This is way too premature and does not account for the inevitable Dem cheating.
Minnesota has a history of blatant ballot fraud. In a race for US Senate between Republican Norm Coleman and Al Franken, Coleman had a razor thin edge in votes. However, suddenly “uncounted” ballot boxes were found all filled with 100% Franken votes. Strange in a race that had Minnesotans equally divided between the two candidates, that these ballot boxes didn’t contain a single Coleman vote, but nothing to see here …move along comrade.
From ‘U. S. News and World Report’ in 2010:
As the Wall Street Journal’s John Fund reports, Minnesota Democrat Al Franken’s narrow, 312-vote victory in 2008 over incumbent Sen. Norm Coleman may have come as the result of people being allowed to vote who, under existing law, shouldn’t have been.
The certification of Franken as the victor came only after a series of recounts dragging out for almost half a year. It also sparked an investigation by Minnesota Majority, a conservative watchdog group that compared the list of those recorded as having voted in the election against what Fund calls “criminal rap sheets.”
The group found, in what appears to clearly warrant further and official inquiry, that at least 341 convicted felons voted in Minneapolis’s Hennepin County, the state’s largest, and another 52 voted illegally in St. Paul’s Ramsey County, the state’s second largest. Dan McGrath, head of Minnesota Majority, says that only conclusive matches were included in the group’s totals. The number of felons voting in those two counties alone exceeds Mr. Franken’s victory margin.
Trump won Minnesota last time but count was stolen
We need some TV ads, it still reaches more people than rallies
and ballot chasers/like Scott Pressler Scott Pressler he helped defeat Hillary Clinton is registering voters to help Trump win, https://earlyvoteaction.com/

Hopefully, but don’t get over confident.
The DNC strong point is the many liberal colleges in Minneapolis.
It is possible Gaza might keep some of them home instead of voting.
I still think this is a stretch.
I lived much of my life in MN.
