ST. PAUL, MN (KELO.com) — It appears a popular Minnesota Democrat is in the wings, ready to announce her candidacy for Governor – even before Governor Tim Walz officially announced he wouldn’t run for re-election. The Star Tribune reports that U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar is seriously considering a run for the state’s top political office. There are reports that Walz and Klobuchar met yesterday before he informed the media today that he was dropping out of a reelection campaign. The senator is considered a tough opponent for Republican candidates. Other DFLers who could consider the governor’s office are Attorney General Keith Ellison and Secretary of State Steve Simon.
