President Barack Obama will attend three big-ticket fundraising events during his visit to Minnesota next week, according to a campaign official.
Two smaller events at $40,000 and $50,000 a head are planned for Friday, June 1. Obama will also deliver remarks at a luncheon for approximately 100 people who've each paid $5,000 to be there, according to the official.
Gov. Mark Dayton said he will be going to the luncheon, which will be held at The Bachelor Farmer, a Minneapolis restaurant owned by his two sons.
MPR News will post more details as they become available.
Update:
All the events will be held at The Bachelor Farmer, according to a campaign official.
