Forums for the Minnesota Governor and U.S. Senate races were held on Wednesday, August 5th at Farmfest, an annual agricultural event. The Governor forum featured likely Democrat nominee Amy Klobuchar, Trump-endorsed Mike Lindell, MNGOP-endorsed Kendall Qualls and RINO Lisa Demuth. The U.S. Senate forum included fake moderate Angie Craig, lunatic Peggy Flanagan, RINO Michele Tafoya, and 2024 GOP U.S. Senate nominee Royce White. 

MNGOP-endorsed Adam Schwarze’s campaign says they were in communication with Farmfest and were set to be invited. They say a last-minute polling requirement was then imposed which blocked his participation in the forum. Schwarze did still attend the event and set up a booth at Farmfest.

These forums were the ONLY debates/forums that RINOs Lisa Demuth and Michele Tafoya agreed to participate in despite several of their opponents demanding debates.

The Governor forum was a bit less eventful than the Senate forum, though Mike Lindell delivered a big attack against Klobuchar in his closing statement on the issue of election integrity/ballot machines. See below:

WATCH: Mike Lindell blasts Amy Klobuchar at Farmfest, says Minnesota is in a "spiritual battle of evil and good of biblical proportions."

Lindell also says Klobuchar used to agree with him on election fraud.

Lindell also touted his plan to eliminate the state income tax in Minnesota.

Each candidate in the Governor forum talked more about their policies or themselves than attacking one another. In one instance, Kendall Qualls accurately said that massive, multi-subject omnibus bills are a problem and further said that some Republicans in office are voting for them. While this may sound good, he failed to mention that one of the Republicans voting for the corrupt and fraud-ridden omnibus bills was sitting on the stage with him! Even worse, as Speaker, Lisa Demuth negotiated the unconstitutional omnibus bills with Democrats behind closed doors and forced them through the legislature!

Shaky Amy and RINO Lisa Demuth were their usual selves in the forum: Thinking only about their own power and pretending to care about farmers. 

In the U.S. Senate forum, there was a lot more fireworks thanks to Royce White’s presence. Royce presented an America First vision, called out the left and the “Commiecrats” in the room, slammed RINO Michele Tafoya on amnesty and abortion, and was the only candidate on stage without a notebook.

On the issue of amnesty, Royce White pointed out that Tafoya believes in a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens. He further argued that any illegal alien who broke the law coming to America gaining citizenship was amnesty. See below:

Like Tafoya, lunatic Peggy Flanagan also believes in a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens. See here.

Royce White took on the issue of abortion in his closing statement by asking the crowd to stand if they “believe in the sanctity of life”. In the video, it appears that a little over half of the crowd stood up. White then said he was the only candidate on stage who supported the sanctity of life, drawing clear attention to Michele Tafoya’s pro-abortion stance. See below:

During Tafoya’s closing statement, she was laughed at by the crowd when she said she was not recruited to run by the Establishment. While most candidates would take it in stride and continue talking, this moment frazzled Tafoya, leading her to sarcastically say “That’s nice”. See below:
