MyPillow's Mike Lindell Says He's Running for Minnesota Governor Because "I Fix Problems"

"The November 2026 election may be months away, but the selection process of party nominees in key races starts on Feb. 3, when both the Minnesota GOP and DFL have caucuses.
Among the most important races: the one for governor. On the Democratic side, things are up in the air after Gov. Tim Walz dropped his reelection bid, though Sen. Amy Klobuchar made a first step in a gubernatorial run this week, filing preliminary paperwork with the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board.
On the Republican side, it's a competitive race with a dozen candidates. Four candidates are consistently finishing strong in recent straw polls. In a party poll last month, businessman Kendall Qualls was first, followed by Speaker Lisa Demuth in second, MyPillow mogul Mike Lindell in third and attorney Chris Madel in fourth."
