What's your feeling on MN?

Have a coworker than grew up in Minneapolis and still lives there. He told me "Don't be surprised if Trump wins MN. People in Minneapolis are tired of not getting help from the Mayor. Trump is going to get some of the protests votes in the city and he definitely has outside of the city. He may get enough in the city"

This is coming from a guy, who is by no means a conservative, who asked me which type of gun he should buy when the riots started.


Thoughts?

SIAP:

quote:

Trump only lost Minnesota by 44,765 votes. You also had 3 Independents who shared 6.9% of the vote or 203,033 votes. This time you have 1 Independent.


Also, Kanye is in the ballot and that may be the state he has the most impact

Joe Biden campaigned there yesterday and they used armed guards to limit the Trump rally to 250 people. You tell me.

Trump wins up here by 3 or more points!! He was going to win before yesterday but the GOV and AG trying to close the rally seals the deal...hopefully will carry over through to next gubernatorial election in 2 years!

And we elect a republican Senator (Jason Lewis) and flip at least one House Seat....

Keith (a-hole) Ellison, the AG of Minnesota knows Trump has a shot. Mentioned it in an interview.

One thing I love is the faux confidence liberals project... Nancy Pelosi states 'It's in the bag for Joe, we'll get started on his agenda today, in-fact'.

I will love how they bitch and complain the day after.

Trump has one more event planned in MN before the election. Has anyone heard of how the campaign intends to get around this bullshite restriction?

Maybe hold it in Fargo, ND just on other side of border? Only generally aware of the geography he is targeting.

I spoke with a co-worker who lives in Minnesota and he sounded like it was a foregone conclusion that Biden was going to win. I suppose he was basing it on his in-laws who are voting for Biden because Trump is a meanie.

I thought midwesterners had more resolve than that.

Saw where he was polling at 3.3% there the other day which is significant.

This, the riots, and the blocking his rally are all specific issues related to MN, I think he takes it.

My pillow, no Im not kidding, probably gave him a good boost as well.

The Trump Campaign hasn't been sending many resources there. It seems like a long shot.

I was watching one of the Fox shows this past week and I think he is trying to target the NE corner and SE corner of Minnesota unfortunately.

This statement is utterly ridiculous. The Trump campaigns get out the vote resources have devoted huge numbers to Minnesota

This.

I think MN is one of the top five states in terms of on the ground volunteers doing door-to-door GOTV efforts. Trump campaign also dropped a huge ad buy in MN for the last 5 days leading up to Tuesday.
