Minnesota Republicans have a clear favorite emerging in their quest to reclaim the governor's mansion, and her name is Lisa Demuth. The current state House Speaker is crushing the competition in the GOP gubernatorial primary straw poll, sending a powerful message that Minnesota conservatives are ready to unite behind proven leadership.
According to the latest results from Tuesday night's precinct caucuses, Demuth has pulled ahead with over 5,000 votes, establishing herself as the undisputed frontrunner in a crowded field. Early social media reports showed her commanding lead, with @TechniGal_Ash reporting that "Lisa Demuth leads with almost 30% of the votes" when 28% of results were in.
The numbers tell a compelling story. As @AlphaNews reported on social media, "Lisa Demuth leads Minnesota GOP caucus night gubernatorial straw poll, followed by Kendall Qualls and Mike Lindell" with 51% reporting. This isn't just a narrow victory - it's a decisive statement from grassroots Republicans across the state.
"The top 3 candidates (Demuth, Qualls, and Lindell) account for almost 74% of the total votes," according to social media tracking of the results.
Here's why this matters, Patriots: Minnesota has been suffering under radical Democrat governance for far too long. The state needs a proven conservative fighter who can actually get things done, not just talk a good game. Demuth has already proven she can lead as House Speaker, standing up to the leftist agenda while advancing conservative principles.
Political observers are taking notice of another crucial factor. As one social media user pointed out, "The Minnesota GOP endorsed candidate for statewide office has not lost a primary since 1994. Looks like Demuth is on track to nab this important endorsement and will be the frontrunner against My Pillow Guy in the primary election."
That's a track record that speaks volumes. When Minnesota Republicans unite behind a candidate, they win primaries. Period.
With Trump back in the White House and the America First movement stronger than ever, Minnesota Republicans have a real opportunity to flip this critical governor's race. The question is: will they rally behind the proven leader who's already showing she can build the coalition needed to win?
