Meet three Republican candidates for Minnesota governor
A month before the Republican convention in Minnesota, none of the Republican candidates for governor has a lock on the endorsement to challenge DFL Gov. Tim Walz in November.
There’s a lot of overlap in the Republican candidates’ messages, including criticism of how Gov. Walz has handled the pandemic, crime and education. Where do the candidates agree and where do they differ?
MPR News political editor Mike Mulcahy talks with three Republican candidates as part of the Politics Friday candidate series.
Plus, listen to a conversation with Domenico Montanaro, NPR Senior Political Editor from a live virtual event on MPR Connects.
