ST. PAUL – Today, Minnesota DFL Chair Ken Martin released the following statement after campaign finance reports showed that the Minnesota DFL had a 9 to 1 cash advantage over the Minnesota GOP heading into the final stretch of the election, with no time left to catch up.
“The Minnesota GOP is entering the last 40 days of this election at a crippling 9 to 1 cash disadvantage, and they’re out of time to catch up,” said DFL Chair Ken Martin. “Meanwhile, our party has broken fundraising records throughout the year, and now we are heading into November with the robust infrastructure we will need to organize across our state. Donald Trump and JD Vance are abandoning Minnesota, but we are not letting our foot off the gas. We are going to take nothing for granted as we work to keep Minnesota blue in November.”
