Oops! They did it again.
A fact-check on a sloppy attack ad costs a candidate credibility that no amount of money can buy back.
For the second time this week, Team Demuth is learning the hard way.

🗳️ Take: I worked against Amy Klobuchar in 2006 and have watched her debate for 20 years. Few politicians debate better. She listens actively, takes notes, and responds precisely. Tonight, she's setting the debate's tone and pace: fluid, disciplined, and relentless. #mngov

I can't comprehend spending over $13 million on the #mngov race and having these be the current rankings and predictions:
• Cook Political Report: Safe D
• Crystal Ball: Safe D
• Decision Desk HQ: Klobuchar 91%
• Polymarket: Klobuchar 95%
• Kalshi: Klobuchar 95%

Costs are up. Chaos is up. Corruption is up.
Minnesotans are fed up with rising health care costs, gas prices, and tariffs that make everything more expensive. We need a Governor who will put Minnesota first – not be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump.

🚨Blue North Beacon Guest Editorial Alert🚨
Iron Range Native and Gold Medal Winning Curling @CoachPhill discusses Walz' Executive Order and what the Iron Range deserves.
Bottom Line:
"Simply telling communities that depend on natural-resource jobs what they cannot do is not an economic strategy. Democrats have an opening this year to rebuild a coalition that once connected Minneapolis, Duluth, the Iron Range and working people across Minnesota."

Minnesota deserves a leader who builds teams, brings people together, and delivers results. That’s how I’ve always approached leadership—and it’s exactly how @amyklobuchar leads. Unity isn’t just a message, it’s how you win. Proud to support her in leading Minnesota and the forward. #Leadership #Minnesota
