Party endorsements shorten time at the Capitol

The DFL party gubernatorial endorsee, and Minnesota House Speaker, Margaret Anderson Kelliher travels around the state today to campaign. Kelliher beat out seven other challengers in a six-ballot endorsement battle Saturday in Duluth. Minnesota Republicans are preparing to gather in Minneapolis later this week to endorse their candidate for governor. And that means another abbreviated week at the Capitol. MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Minnesota Public Radio News reporter Tim Pugmire who keeps an eye on lawmakers where ever they go.
