MN: Grand Forks Herald Endorses Tom Horner (I) for Governor

From the Grand Forks Herald:

It has to be one of the saddest trends of modern times. On scatter charts that map political polarization in Congress, the red or Republican dots drift right over time while the blue or Democratic dots drift left — to the point that today, there’s virtually no overlap between the most conservative Democrat and the most liberal Republican. The same thing is happening in the Minnesota Legislature. And on Nov. 2, voters can elect a governor who further weights one side of that divide. Or they can elect someone who bridges it. Tom Horner is that bridge-building candidate, and he deserves Minnesotans’ vote. Horner is the right man for this simple reason: He is the candidate who stands by far the best chance of erasing Minnesota’s crushing budget deficit.
