Greg Copeland is running for Minnesota State Senate in the District 66 special election on April 12.<\/p>\n
A Republican? Running in Saint Paul?<\/p>\n
Yep. \u00a0And he’s running to win.<\/p>\n
He can’t do it without help, of course. \u00a0As we noted on the show yesterday, he needs to top $3,000 by Monday afternoon to get state matching money. \u00a0If you can contribute anything, we’d appreciate it. \u00a0And remember – once we get over $3,000 it’s not done. \u00a0Indeed, it’s just a start. \u00a0No contribution will be wasted. \u00a0Here’s where you can donate – and many thanks to those of you who have contributed already. Here’s the campaign’s contributions page<\/a>.<\/p>\n Beyond money? \u00a0In a street-level campaign like this one, volunteers are everything. \u00a0And you don’t have to live in SD66 to help out! \u00a0Volunteer information is on this page<\/a>. \u00a0The campaign needs help door-knocking, phone banking, placing campaign signs, and all the other jobs that a winning campaign needs done.<\/p>\n The Copeland For Senate site is right here<\/a>. \u00a0He’s also on Facebook <\/a>and Twitter<\/a>. \u00a0Stay in touch – and please help out. \u00a0Minnesota – and Saint Paul, its capitol – don’t need another DFL ticket-puncher in the Senate.<\/p>\n Disclosure: \u00a0I’m a volunteer on the Copeland for Senate staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Greg Copeland is running for Minnesota State Senate in the District 66 special election on April 12.
