Source: Bill Luther will not attend endorsing convention

A source close to DFL Congressman Bill Luther says Luther will not attend the DFL Party's endorsing convention for attorney general on Saturday. Party delegates are meeting in Sauk Rapids on Saturday with the hopes of endorsing a candidate for attorney general. Luther, Minnesota State Senator Steve Kelley and Minnesota Solicitor General Lori Swanson are all running in the DFL primary this September.

The three candidates got into the race after State Representative Matt Entenza dropped his candidacy on the last filing day. Luther is planning on meeting with reporters later today to discuss his decision and candidacy.
