Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
DGA Statement on Scott Jensen Becoming the Republican Nominee for Governor in Minnesota
DGA Executive Director Noam Lee released the following statement on Scott Jensen officially becoming the Republican nominee for governor in Minnesota:
“Scott Jensen and his running mate Matt Birk are radical extremists whose far-right agenda only serves to distract and divide Minnesotans.
“The Jensen-Birk ticket has promised to ban abortion, even in cases of rape and incest. They proudly defended comments that belittled survivors of rape and sexual assault and compared abortion to slavery. Jensen also is well-known for spreading disinformation about the 2020 election and COVID-19 — and then threatening to fire the board of doctors investigating him for his false claims if elected governor.
“Minnesotans want to continue to move forward with strong public schools, safe communities an economy that uplifts everyone. Scott Jensen’s far-right extremism would move the state in the wrong direction.”
