Most of the big names in Minnesota democratic politics are now behind a Kamala Harris presidential nomination effort.

As of Monday morning, Gov. Tim Walz and 2nd District U.S. Rep. Angie Craig threw their support to Vice President Harris.

Craig joined Minnesota Congressional Democrats Ilhan Omar and Betty McCollum in supporting Harris. Rep. Dean Phillips, who had a brief and unsuccessful run against President Joe Biden, thinks Harris is “well-prepared” to run and beat Donald Trump, but thinks there should be straw polls and town hall meetings to vet potential candidates.

Minnesota Sens. Tina Smith and Amy Klobuchar are Harris supporters. Klobuchar, Minnesota’s senior senator, joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer.
