Out in St. Peter today for a great door knock with District 18A candidate Leah Hanson, Rep. Luke Frederick, and an amazing group of volunteers! Nine days until Election Day, and Minnesotans are showing up.

Vikings win! Another incredible game from our defense and we held on for the win. 6-0! And congrats to Will Reichard for setting a new franchise record for the most consecutive field goals made. 🏈

Our veterans fought to protect our democracy, and I will stand up for our veterans as Governor. They deserve a leader who works for them. I have as Senator and I will continue to as Governor.

Another game day in Minnesota! The 5-0 Vikings take on the Colts right here at home. SKOL! 💜💛

Twenty-four years ago we lost my friends Paul and Sheila, their daughter Marcia, and three dedicated members of his staff: Mary, Tom, and Will. Everyone who was in our state at the time remembers where they were when they learned of the horrific news of the plane crash. But we also remember the green bus, the indefatigable Paul running back and forth in parades, and the joy and the hope the Wellstones brought to our politics. For me as a newbie in government back then Paul was a constant whirling dervish of a lesson in how to stay true to your North Star. One time he asked me how a certain campaign was going and I said “the numbers look really good.” His response? “Really, I mean how does it feel out there? What are people actually talking about? What do they need?” He was right. In his last few years Paul had been diagnosed with M.S. and he couldn’t run back and forth in those parades any more. Instead he and Sheila would just stand on the back of that green bus and wave. But what I most remember was this: they had inspired so many people to run with them over the years that there were hundreds of people — young and old — in their green Wellstone shirts running around that bus, creating so much energy for good that you didn’t even notice that Paul wasn’t running himself. That’s politics at its best. Bringing people with you. Not shutting them out. Doing your work with joy and believing that our democracy — with all its imperfections — is something to cherish and hold up. Paul believed that politics was all about, in his words, improving people’s lives. Let’s remember that now and after the election. And when you vote this week (and you must) remember the good and why you’re doing it. 💚

Gophers WIN and brought the Floyd of Rosedale trophy home! So much fun to be at the game cheering them on! #SkiUMah

Always fun to cheer on the Gophers! Fall Saturdays and Gopher football — doesn't get much better than that! #SkiUMah 🏈💛❤️

Back in Anoka, the “Halloween Capital of the World” 🎃 for a great parade and plenty of Halloween spirit!

Today is Vote Early Day. With only 10 days to go until the election, every conversation counts! I spent the morning in Lino Lakes with our incredible DFL candidates Rep. Matt Norris, Chris Ford & Doug Chapin and so many volunteers to help voters make a plan to vote. Find your polling place at amyklobuchar.com/vote

The football game I’ve been waiting for! The Iowa Hawkeyes (not to be confused with various other birds from Atlanta) are in town to play our Golden Gophers and the Floyd of Rosedale is on the line! #SkiUMah #RowtheBoat!

Minnesota needs a governor who puts Minnesota first. Unlike my opponent, I’m not Donald Trump’s choice. I’m not Mike Lindell’s choice. I’m not the choice of a billionaire from Wisconsin. And I am not the chief author of a bill that would ban abortion and send doctors to jail. I’ll be Minnesota’s choice. And Minnesota is who I’ll govern for.

Multiple dark money mailers against me are being sent out all over the state to suppress votes ahead of the election. They’re mailed by a group linked to out-of-state dark money with no website and a fake return address. Minnesotans don’t like to be lied to or misled — these dirty tricks won’t work.

Nicole Smith-Holt lost her son Alec because he couldn’t afford his insulin, and she took on Big Pharma to fight for affordable insulin reform. I’m honored to have her support. As Governor, I will continue to stand up to Big Pharma and fight to lower prescription drug costs.

Lisa Demuth doesn’t want to talk about it, but it matters: she was the lead author of a bill to ban abortion – with no exceptions for rape or incest – and to put doctors in jail. And earlier this year, she said she supports overturning the court case protecting abortion in Minnesota. As Governor, I will protect a woman’s right to make her own health care decisions in Minnesota.

Happy birthday John! And the “first kiss” goes to you, State Fair apples and all! Thanks for being the 🍎 of my eye (and always liking puns and dad jokes). You are a wonderful husband and dad to Abigail and we love you!

I’ll never forget what the parents of Harper — who was killed in the Annunciation Church shooting — told me: change is possible and necessary. I’m grateful they joined me today to keep fighting for that change. My opponent met with them in their living room and promised them she would allow a vote on a common-sense gun safety package. She broke that promise to them. As Governor, I will keep my word.

80% of Lisa Demuth’s lying attack ads are bankrolled by one man, Richard Uihlein, the right wing shipping supplies billionaire who spent $59 million to put Trump back in the White House. He’s spending $14 million to buy a rubber stamp of Trump in the Minnesota Governor’s office. He could have bought one of his own that literally says “Paid” for $11. Pricey!
