Capitol View

Chair of House Intelligence Committee will hold a fundraiser for Gil Gutknecht this weekend

A source told me that Congressman Peter Hoekstra (R-Michigan) will be in the Twin Cities this weekend to hold a fundraiser for GOP Congressman Gil Gutknecht. DFL challenger Tim Walz is mounting a serious campaign against Gutknecht in the district that stretches across the bottom part of the state. NPR has an interesting profile on Hoekstra here.

Even more interesting is who Hoekstra appears to be avoiding in coming to Minnesota...
