Don Holzhuh

by Chris Roberts, Minnesota Public Radio

St. Paul, Minn. — Don Holzshuh is a 51-year-old truck driver from Minneapolis who heads up "a typical middle class family." He's married, with one daughter.

Years ago he was in a punk band and is an avid painter. Holzshuh says he was raised as a "Teddy Roosevelt" Republican, but bolted the party during the Reagan years when it was taken over by "conservative Democrats obsessed with abortion." He's been third party or looking for a third party ever since.
