The Democratic National Committee is set to elect a new party chair this weekend, with Minnesota’s Ken Martin, the current state DFL Party leader, in the running for the position. The state’s Republican Party Chair, Alex Plechash, who was elected in December, will also be joining the conversation to discuss the state of his party.
Amidst all this, the Minnesota House has failed to reach a quorum, while DFLers are expected to regain control of the Senate after a special election. MPR News politics editor Brian Bakst and his guests will be discussing Martin’s bid for the national party chair, as well as the current state of both political parties in the state.
Guests on the show will include Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, Minnesota Republican Party Chair Alex Plechash, and MPR News senior politics reporter Dana Ferguson. Listeners can tune in to the Politics Friday podcast on various platforms to stay updated on the latest political news from the state Capitol.
