Minnesota Watch: Numero Tres
Yesterday, Mark Dayton (D-MN) announced that he will not seek a second term in the United States Senate. Today, a new name might be entering the fray in the Minnesota Senate race. KSTP, the ABC affiliate in Minneapolis/St. Paul, has the big scoop:
Just one day after U.S. Sen. Mark Dayton decided not to run for a second term, comedian Al Franken may be throwing his hat into the ring.Listen live here.
Last year, Franken said he wanted to run for the Senate in 2008. But last night he told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS that he is now considering his candidacy for next year.
Franken, a Minnesota native, plans to make an announcement live on his national radio show in Washington D.C. 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS will be in the studio with Franken for that announcement.
The announcement is expected to come near the end of the broadcast, which will be around 1:45 p.m. [Central]
