Too many cooks spoil the broth in CD8.

Craig endorsed CD2, Phillips endorsed CD3, CD8 hung; per Strib reporting here. In CD8 some guy named Radinovich got in the way of Leah Phifer, who after ten ballots led but was short of the sixty percent needed to be endorsed, again, per Strib. That means with 48% Phifer and 42% for Radinovich 10% was left for strgglers.

Maybe they could have a trap shooting
contest instead of a primary.
It would not take until August.

Phifer is the better choice to defeat Stauber, but it appears there will be a primary, exhausting resources; Stauber benefiting while progress suffers. Phifer, not tardy entrant Radinovich, got the Our Revolution endorsement.

Radinovich might be the best man for the job, but Phifer is the best woman and the progressive between the two; unless you want to quibble over Our Revolution's choice.

Contribute to Leah or suffer Stauber going to DC to be a pro-mining ass.

CD8 DFL voters: Tromp Radinovich in the primary for the late entry termerity. Phifer was candidate when Nolan married Emmer [figuratively] on dangerous mining; Phifer was there when blowback on the Emmer-mining monkey business "encouraged" Nolan to weigh options; Nolan quit; then his campaign management honcho Joe jumped in and mucked things up - on behalf of Stauber indirectly.

Nolan even went so far as to put his thumb on the scale at the endorsement convention, in absentia, for his campaign jock, Radinovich.

Whomp Joe R. in the primary, CD8 folks. MinnPost reports on the CD8 deadlock; this link; mentioning the Nolan thumb on the scale (which proved insufficient except to hang the endorsement voting and cause a messy primary).

Thanks a lot, Rick.
