Minnesotoids, roll out
Minnesota Voting Location Information
Hi everyone,
Substack’s analytics suggest that about 4% of you are from the great state of Minnesota.
I just wanted to remind all of you to vote in the Republican primary, which is happening TOMORROW, for Lisa Demuth. Demuth is the Minority Leader of the Minnesota State House’s GOP delegation. I don’t know anything about her beyond her position and the fact that her opponent in the primary is former MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.
Mike Lindell has been a loyal soldier for President Trump. He seems like a solid guy, but I don’t think he would be a very strong candidate in the gubernatorial election. Minnesota Republicans are facing longshot odds and Demuth has less of a public profile than Lindell. I think a “Generic R” is going to be far more viable in the race than someone with Lindell’s colorful history.
People often write off states like Minnesota, but voter participation is so low that there is substantial chance for an upset. I don’t know if you’re aware of this, but Minnesota’s state legislature currently has a 50-50 Republican-Democrat split. That’s pretty crazy for a state with that liberal of a reputation. There are lots of people tired of liberal politics who are looking for a realistic alternative. Lindell probably wouldn’t offer one, but Demuth might.
It’s always better to win than to lose. A Republican in the Minnesota governor’s mansion could do a lot of interesting things to totally reshape the political arrangement of the state. Remember: Florida used to be a swing state. The right person in the right place can do a lot of damage to our enemies. It doesn’t take much to dismantle these networks. Often liberals are just one upset away from total defeat.
We owe it to our people in Minnesota to maintain a broad front. You can’t just leave these guys to suffer under permanent liberal tyranny. I encourage you, the person reading this, to vote in the Minnesota primary for Lisa Demuth. If you are a billionaire donor or influential political operative, please don’t ignore Minnesota. It’s races like these where only a bit more money thrown into advertising or a few more professional activists could really prove to be decisive.
Although no one should talk about this during the campaign, most important for me is that if we had a Republican governor of Minnesota, that governor would have the power to free Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer who was railroaded and sentenced to decades in prison following the George Floyd incident.
I think the conviction of Derek Chauvin was one of the greatest injustices in American history. If you want to overthrow the myth of the Floyd Era and permanently demoralize our enemies, there is no way better way to do that than to free this innocent man.
If you live in Minnesota, you can find your voting location here. Please vote! It really makes a difference. News just broke today that a Trump-backed candidate in Indiana defeated his establishment Republican opponent who sabotaged the state’s redistricting efforts in a recount. The election came down to just 3 votes in the end. If I can convince just 3 of you who wouldn’t have voted otherwise to support a more electable candidate, I will consider this post a success.
Never let anyone tell you that it doesn’t matter. If we fight, we will win.
