Bad News for Republicans In Minnesota

A new Mason-Dixon poll in Minnesota finds President Trump’s approval rating has dropped from 45% to 39%, while 56% disapprove of his handling of the job.

“In other results, Democrats are safely ahead of Republicans in nearly every major statewide race. Rep. Tim Walz (D) leads Jeff Johnson (R) by 9 points in the governor’s race, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D) is up big over Jim Newberger (R), and Sen. Tina Smith (D) leads state Sen. Karin Housley (R) by 7 points.”

“The only real bright spot for Republicans? Doug Wardlow (R) is within striking distance of Rep. Keith Ellison (D) in the attorney general contest, though still trailing by 5 percentage points, with 18 percent undecided. That’s after Ellison was accused by an ex-girlfriend of domestic abuse, which he denies.”

1. What about the Congressional races?

I live in the 1st CD. I see Jim Hagedorn signs all over the place. This is his 4th time running.

Though Dan Feehan is running an issues based campaign and the Farmers here are not happy with the Tax Cuts, Trade Tariffs, rising prices on fuel for their machines, higher priced consumer goods, etc.

Voters in general in the 1st CD are concerned about many things as well. Health Care being tops due to the Mayo Clinic here.
