Help Us Respond

  Dear Friend,   Sorry to bother you, but this is important: Today marks less than 34 days until election day. I'm working hard to ensure that every registered voter in Minnesota will have the opportunity to vote from home. This meant sending out 2.3 million absentee ballot applications t…

Did you see Steve's note?

  Dear Friend,   I wanted to make sure you saw this note from Steve earlier this week.   While Steve and his team have been working harder than ever to protect our democracy, political scaremongers continue to attack our efforts to keep our elections easy, safe, and secure.    We need t…

Protecting our democracy has made me a target.

    Dear Friend,   I've been working hard to protect our democracy during this very challenging year. The pandemic demands maximum effort and care in administering an election. A few days ago, my office took a significant step toward making the 2020 election as safe as possible. We sent …

What I Told CNN

    Dear Friend,   Earlier this week, President Trump launched another apparent attack on voting by mail - even though he himself votes that way.    Expressing doubts about the integrity of the vote-by-mail process in North Carolina, the President suggested that his supporters should vo…

What I said on "Meet the Press" about the postal service

  Dear Friend,   I recently appeared on "Meet the Press Daily" with NBC's Chuck Todd to talk about the slowdowns at the U.S. Postal Service, which some have alleged are sabotage intended to slow the delivery of mail-in ballots in November.      Here's part of what I said: "Whoever i…

Is the Postal Service being undermined to delay ballot delivery?

  Dear Friend,   Recent and sudden U.S. Postal Service slowdowns could seriously delay the delivery of ballots in the November election.   President Trump's newly appointed U.S. Postmaster General has abruptly ended overtime pay that helps ensure daily mail pickup and delivery. He defends…

President Trump Cannot Delay The Election

  Dear Friend,   For months, President Trump has hinted that he could postpone the November general election. Today was his latest such suggestion:     In addition to being ugly and dangerous, the implied threats are empty.   He may have the appetite to delay voting, but he doesn't …

Confronting the President's Misinformation

  Dear Friend,   As Secretary of State, I have a duty to confront false information about our election system.   Earlier this week, here's what President Trump sent to his 80 million followers on Twitter:     The President's tweet is totally false. This kind of misinformation is dang…

What Happened In Georgia

  Dear Friend,   What happened in the Georgia primary election a few days ago was outrageous. It was yet another recent example of voters left to wait for hours in long lines - with some people turning away in disgust or frustration. The voters most affected were people of color - who were too…

We Can't Bring George Floyd Back

  Dear Friend,   Last week, we saw with our own eyes the slow-motion killing of a restrained human being named George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer.    It soon became clear that the community response to his killing was about more than just one person or one tragedy. It was about th…

In a pandemic, we need universal vote-by-mail!

  Dear Friend,   The recent election in Wisconsin was an urgent warning for Minnesota.    Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, poll workers in Wisconsin who feared for their health declined to work, . . . which caused a drastic consolidation of polling places,  . . . which meant unacceptably …
