Minnesota is quickly running out of viable candidates; im personally not surprised; with a decent Democratic nominee and Trump in office, i am feeling real good about an easy hold

Seems hard to imagine they end up with a top tier candidate at this point, and it’s so early. The state senate is up for re-election this year so none of them can have a freebie chance at the US Senate, which the GOP relies on with finding a candidate. There isn’t much incentive for anyone with a name to run. Even some rich guy would be smart enough to be like, well ahhhh shit, MN is a doom money pit. Outspending the MN DFL is very hard to do and the electoral advantage is damn near impossible to overcome. The last Republican to win MN was in 2006 and that’s bc our candidate blew it in the end stretch.
