Chris Madel Throws in the Towel

Chris Madel, a Republican who’d been vying for the top spot in Minnesota, is calling it quits. He’s ditching his bid for governor, and he’s not mincing words about why. Madel says the immigration crackdown in Minneapolis is a ‘disaster’, and he won’t support it.

A Sudden Change of Heart

Madel’s sudden exit from the race is raising eyebrows. It’s not every day a candidate drops out and starts trashing their own party’s policies. But Madel’s had a change of heart, and he’s not afraid to say so. He’s done with the gubernatorial race, and he’s done with the immigration effort.
