Ventura s Politics in Minnesota
... I have never visited Minnesota so I don’t know what it is like there, but judging from Electing Jesse Ventura, I think it would have been quite entertaining to have visited during the election of the wrestler turn elected governor. I agree with the author when he says Ventura was elected because he was a candidate in Minnesota not because he was a celebrity. Ventura overcame common barriers that 3rd parties face during an election and most of the credit goes to the state of Minnesota.
