Former Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka is officially running for the Republican nomination for Minnesota governor.
The G-O-P senator from the Brainerd lakes area criticized current Governor Tim Walz for his handling of the COVID pandemic.
Gazelka said, “Tim Walz irresponsible shutdown, based on his lack of understanding of the scientific data closed hundreds of restaurants and small business across the state bankrupting many of them.”
D-F-L chair Ken Martin says “Gazelka’s decision to hold a maskless superspreader event led to a COVID-19 outbreak among lawmakers and Senator Jerry Relph of St. Cloud died.”
Walz has not announced whether he will run for re-election in 2022.
