Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan are running for another term next year.  Walz released a re-election video this (Tuesday) morning saying, “during the unprecedented challenges of the last two years, I’ve seen Minnesotans from all walks of life come together in order to fight the virus, save lives and get our state on the path to recovery.

We’re not done yet, but Peggy and I are excited to continue that fight with you.”  The Democratic governor has been under fire from Republicans for business and school closures and mask mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The list of candidates seeking the 2022 G-O-P nomination for governor includes Senators Paul Gazelka and Michelle Benson and former Senator Scott Jensen.
