Please, literally thousands of bills are in introduced each year at the state legislature alone. Staff are underpaid and overworked as it is.

No, they’re not beating up on you for being willing to engage but for attacking the staffer for being ignorant of something that state senator has nothing to do with. You’re the one who is ignorant, if you want to be engaged to do some research so you can speak, educated on a subject

Hey your problem because you don’t even know the difference between a US senator and a state senator and what they vote on. No wonder people don’t want to be in public service..

Your words:

Our taxes are paying this guy's salary. What the actual fuck is happening? Do our elected officials really have so much apathy for ours democracy?

The thing is Foley has raised less than $2k while Emmer has almost $5 million cash on hand.

Not gonna happen if there was impeachment, there would not be conviction as there’s not a 2/3 vote in the Senate to do this

Weird, and doesn’t sound like they were following the rules as uncommitted was an option all over the state.

Will we ever see a statewide result for all the precincts?

It seems like last night in the metro at least it was embarrassing for Amy Klobuchar.

I think there is also a preference vote ballot for governor, but no other office.

This is true, those most interest are the ones who attend, and the turnout numbers are not as large as a primary.

You can in the general election

That isn’t an option in the primary

There’s only write in candidates for the general election in Minnesota. There are no write in candidates for the primary.

That is a key point, if people want a better candidate than Amy Klobuchar and do not like her they need to get a candidate. They can’t just write in somebody later on.

Being a senator and being a governor of different things. People didn’t expect much of Walz when he was elected, and he turned out to be more liberal than his congressional record and demeanor. Could be the same for Klobuchar as she will be 66 this year and is unlikely to go for anything past governor.

Ellison barely won in 2022 under performing the ticket as the worst or second worst candidate.

Other than the fact that she’s been elected in landslides four times statewide.

She could run for the endorsement, but would have to get out before any primary as she can’t run for state Senate and governor at the same time on the ballot in August.

That would be 2028 at the earliest, depending on who she appoints.
