Democrats and Biden Challenge Trump’s Claim on Flipping Minnesota

0:00

Democrats in Minnesota and President Biden’s campaign are challenging former President Trump’s assertion that he can flip Minnesota, a traditionally blue state. Since 1972, Minnesota has consistently voted for Democrats in presidential elections, with Biden winning by a significant margin in 2020 and Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Governor Tim Walz expressed confidence in Biden’s ability to win Minnesota, dismissing Trump’s claims as untrue. While Trump plans to visit the state for a Republican Party dinner, Democrats are not taking the state for granted, citing their ground game and efforts to engage voters.

The Trump campaign has identified Minnesota and Virginia as potential battleground states, with senior adviser Chris LaCivita expressing optimism about flipping both. Trump himself believes he has a strong chance in Minnesota, pointing to his efforts to support industry and build friendships in the state.

Despite Trump’s optimism, Democrats are not complacent, emphasizing their work to engage voters and build trust in the community. Minnesota’s support for abortion rights and lack of a large population of non-college-educated, blue-collar workers make it a challenging state for Trump to win.

Democratic pollster Celinda Lake highlighted the state’s disagreement with Trump’s viewpoints and character, stating that electing Trump would be the opposite of “Minnesota nice.”
