[Lnc-business] Region 6 report

Well of course Minnesota sent me their's 20 min after I sent it when I no longer have access to Word to edit it and resend. So I am including it here. If anyone wants to insert it I would love you long time LOL.  
Minnesota
  Chris Dock for Auditor set a new total vote record for a homegrown LPMN candidate with 53,075 (2.1%) despite third party voting percentages being significantly lower than recent elections. 
Cara Schulz helped three Libertarians in Minnesota win their non-partisan city council races, including Vince Workman in Burnsville, Olga Parsons in Crystal, and Nick Roehl in Plymouth. Each of these are large cities in the Twin Cities metro.

LPMn campaigns in 2018 got more attention than ever before, as our candidates were invited to t.v., radio, and newspaper interviews. Our debate exclusion protest (of about 30 folks) got a spot on the nightly news. Our candidates were also visible at several significant outreach events such as the Citizens Council for Health Freedom dinner and the Students for Liberty conference day at the University of Minnesota.

Finally our Chairman Chris Holbrook is spearheading an effort with an MN state senator on changing the threshold for major party status from 5 percent to 1 percent.  We will be launching a large campaign in December to nurture this process.  The legislation is currently being drafted and will be introduced in the upcoming 2019 session.  

Look for things to heat up in MN this winter!
Thank you.
