Dear Friend, 

After President Trump urged his supporters to "go into the polls and watch very carefully," I went on CNN to set the record straight, In Minnesota, we will not have poll-watchers swarming the polling places. Period. 

I explained that in Minnesota, our laws place specific limits on "challengers" in the polling place. Each major political party is entitled to send only one person to each polling place, and only by written designation. Once there, a challenger may not speak to a voter - or even get within six feet of a voter. Most critically, any challenge to a voter's eligibility must be based on "personal knowledge" - not a hunch or a feeling or a question. 

Voters have a right to be left alone, to be free of intimidation, and to cast their votes in an atmosphere of calm. I will make sure that Minnesota's strict laws on "challengers" are fully enforced in November.

Steve
