MN-GOV: Lori Swanson takes early poll lead in for Democratic nomination
MN-Gov: We have our first poll of the Aug. 14 Democratic primary courtesy of Minnesota Victory PAC, a group backing Rep. Tim Walz. The Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research survey gives Attorney General Lori Swanson, who jumped into the race just last month, a 37-29 lead over Walz, while state Rep. Erin Murphy takes 17. The memo includes respondents reactions to mostly favorable information about the congressman, so the PAC is likely releasing this otherwise unfavorable poll to signal to Walz's allies what messages they should be emphasizing about him over the next month.
