elections 2018

We talked with Sam Brodey (Washington correspondent for Minn Post) on the Thursday Morning Show today about the turbulent DFL political climate right now.  Five candidates are still in the race for District 8 and Senator Tina Smith faces Richard Painter - once a Republican in President George W. Bush's administration turned Democrat and staunchly anti-Trump. 

We continue our MN Candidate series with DFLer Mike Rothman who is running for MN Attorney General.  This year the race is heated, especially on the DFL side  and the August 14th MN Primaries are all the more important.

Republican Karin Housley was elected to the MN senate in 2012 from the Stillwater/St. Croix River Valley area  and has been chairwoman of the Aging and Long-Term Care Committee and vice chair of the Commerce and Consumer Protection Committee, and serves on the Veterans and Military Affairs and the Jobs and Economic Growth committees.
