For those keeping track, these are the results from Saturday’s national delegate elections. The top twelve contestants were elected. I was unable to record results for the candidates Tracy Ries or Don Evanson, but the other 33 candidates placed as follows. Though Don Huizenga placed in 13th place, his vote total fell below the 50 percent threshold required to win. Rather than going to a second ballot, Don endorsed Rep. Michele Bachmann (who placed 14th), and the delegation elected her by acclamation. |

In the last week, Terry McCall and Pat Shortridge joined the race for chairman of the Minnesota Republican Party. (Shortridge is pictured at left.)I have never met Shortridge, but I have noticed the media favors him.Click hereto see Doug Grow writing for MinnPost about how he expects him to win. Doug's credentials as an informed member of the GOP may be in question, but maybe we can still appreciate his wisdom as a member of the press corps. In addition to Todd McIntyre, it looks like McCall and Shortridge will round out the field of candidates for chairman of the Republican |
