Sixteen years of Democrat control in Minnesota brought fraud, higher taxes and a government that ignores common sense, and Peggy Flanagan and Amy Klobuchar are just more of the same failed establishment. Republicans like Michele Tafoya offer real change: stop the fraud, cut taxes, protect girls sports and restore accountability. Minnesota deserves outsiders willing to fix what career politicians broke.

It's time to end 16 years of Democratic control in Minnesota. Republicans like Tafoya and Demuth will end fraud, lower taxes and bring back common sense, like protecting girls' sports. Tafoya and DeMuth will also restore accountability where establishment hacks like Klobuchar and Flanagan have let things slide.
