It's been an election season like none other as Democrats scramble to find a new candidate to top the ticket. Many big-name Minnesota Democrats are backing Vice President Kamala Harris, including Gov. Tim Walz. The governor joined us at the top of the show.
We heard from Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who also says she’s supporting Harris. And former Minnesota Gov. Arne Carlson's has experience with running a successful campaign late in the game. We found out what lessons he learned.
We also learned what Minnesota delegates that are going to the Democratic National Convention are thinking now.
Plus, we heard from people across the state about what they think in this unprecedented moment.
Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Father Hennepin” by Hazelcreak, and our Song of the Day was “I’d Run Away” by The Jayhawks.
