Lindell Leads GOP Governor Race

from Minneapolis News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Minnesota’s Republican governor’s race is heating up with Mike Lindell, the MyPillow CEO and Trump ally, now leading polls at 27%, ahead of Lisa Demuth (22%) and Kendall Qualls (17%). Though Lindell’s approval is low, Demuth’s disapproval is even worse — and both she and Qualls are hoping Trump will endorse them. Demuth stayed in the race after losing the party’s endorsement to Qualls, a move Qualls called “unfortunate.” Meanwhile, Democrat Amy Klobuchar dominates in fundraising and polls, but Demuth is betting she’d beat Klobuchar in November — a potential edge she’s leveraging in the primary. Financially, Demuth’s $500K dwarfs Qualls’ $100K, but still pales compared to Klobuchar’s $3M. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
