Jun 2018

After 6 rounds of voting, Tim Walz decided not to seek the endorsement. He will be continuing his campaign, focusing on the Republican. Tim is not the kind of person to go negative on a fellow Democrat.

Tim is a dear friend of mine. I believe him to be the strongest of the field in his knowledge of the facts, a debate style that lets no one off the hook, who has remained humble since being elected to Congress in 2006, and the most fit to go head to head with Tim Pawlenty.
