MNGOP Unites Behind Winning Statewide Ticket
MINNEAPOLIS — The Republican Party of Minnesota State Central Committee today endorsed Lisa Demuth, Ryan Wilson, Scott Jensen and Michele Tafoya by acclamation following their resounding primary victories.
MNGOP Chairman Alex Plechash released the following statement:
“Today’s vote sends a clear message: Minnesota Republicans are united, resourced and ready to win. We have candidates who can win, a statewide organization built to compete and a party united behind one ticket.
“Our candidates will end taxpayer-funded fraud, restore accountability and make Minnesota more affordable through property-tax relief and car tabs costing $99 or less. With Michele Tafoya, Minnesotans will finally have a U.S. senator who treats fraud as a crisis instead of turning a blind eye and saying, ‘Not my job.’
“The primary is behind us. Republicans are united, our operation is ready, and now we are taking our message directly to voters across Minnesota.”
