Governor Walz on Twitter, over the weekend:

November is Native American Heritage Month – a time to recognize the vibrant and diverse Native American cultures that are an integral part of our state’s history and continued strength.

— Governor Tim Walz (@GovTimWalz) November 16, 2024

Lt. Governor Flanagan, who uses her Native heritage like Walz uses plaid shirts:

During Native American Heritage Month, we celebrate our resiliency and continued existence as contemporary Native people, and honor and value the diverse Native American cultures in Mni Sota Makoce.
 
This month, and every month, I’m proud to be Indigenous.

That might explain them missing this bit of news:

The shift is striking because a Brookings Institution analysis published after the 2022 midterm elections found Native Americans still “solidly Democratic in their voting preferences.” Looking at data from an African American Research Collaborative poll with a nationally representative sample of Native American voters, the Brookings authors noted that in “House races across the country, Native Americans supported Democratic candidates at 56% relative to 40% of Native Americans who reported voting for Republicans.”

Seventeen counties with majority-Native American populations swung toward President-elect Donald Trump by ten or more percentage points. Just as with black and Hispanic voters, Native Americans had concerns that extended beyond the identity politics and left-wing virtue signaling of Democrats and the Kamala Harris campaign. Nationally, a whopping 65 percent of Native American voters went for Trump.

Apparently “stolen land declarations” aren’t as important as a decent economy and, perhaps, taming of the federal bureaucracy that’s sandbagged so much of Native American society.

Either way, I suspect if any more elections go like this, Prog politicians will stop “celebrating” Native American month, and you’ll start to see Sunny Hostin calling them “Native White Supremacists”.
