Fantasy Legislature: Bemidji Beavers

Minnesota Public Radio

Bemidji Beavers
Gold League
Manager: Mike Simpkins
Bio: Was on my first legislative campaign steering committee in 1986. Most recently worked on the Steve Kelley statewide campaign(s) and after the AG primary, worked on a number of legislative campaigns in Northern Minnesota.
Strategy: Bemidji Beavers...hometown college..oops, I mean University. I tried to draft legislators who I thought would be effective and that I also liked. Probably not smart to put "likeability" in the equation but so be it. I see the Beavers as a top 5 team but will need some good fortune and strategery to win the whole thing.
