2022 race briefing

2022 race. This briefing is from the November 8, 2022 election.

This election cycle, Ryan has chosen to leave his position as Majority Leader in the MN House and instead run for Hennepin County Attorney. The incumbent attorney is stepping down, and seven candidates are running for this position. Ryan faces an uphill challenge. Progressives should be supporting Ryan NOW so that he can come in in the top two candidates who will then run for election in the General Election on November 8th. Progressives should continue to support Ryan through the General Election so that a Progressive can move into this key Executive position in the Hennepin County government.
