The Caucus has an interesting post in advance of the NRCC's annual fundraiser. The post says the head of the NRCC has issued a list of talking points and fundraising targets for Republican incumbents. You can read the memo here. GOP Rep. Jim Ramstad has to raise the most of Minnesota's delegation. He has a target of $100,000. GOP Rep. John Kline has to raise $75,000. GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann has the low target of $20,000.
The feature examines statements made by Minnesota politicians and checks them for accuracy. Based on data analysis, document reviews and interviews with non-partisan analysts, statements are rated either true, false or inconclusive. PoliGraph is a collaboration between Minnesota Public Radio News and the Humphrey School of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota.
