MNGOP State Central delegates will be voting on party leadership contests on December 12th, 2026. MNGOP roles up for grabs includes the Chair, Deputy Chair, and Secretary. Several candidates are likely to emerge in each of those races but MNGOP Chair candidate Nate George is gaining traction with grassroots conservatives due to his anti-establishment message.

Nate George is the Mayor of Braham, Minnesota and was the MNGOP-endorsed candidate for State Auditor in 2026 after defeating Scott Jensen on the first ballot with over 76% of the vote. Nate George announced in September that he would run for the MNGOP Chair position and would fight to “put the grassroots first”.

Minnesota Republicans faced devastating losses across the state on election day. Democrats won every statewide office, gained a Congressional seat, expanded their State Senate majority, and took control over the State House.

The day after the election, Nate George published a fiery press release that argued that the Republican Party is not listening, not delivering, and that the “era of Establishment control must end”. See below:

As seen in previous A4L reporting, Republicans lost in Minnesota because the GOP failed to inspire grassroots conservatives. Many America First voters stayed home to punish the Establishment RINOs that are fighting against their interests.

Nate George argues that the MNGOP must return to adhering to fundamental responsibilities like representing its members, standing by its principles, attracting voters, and winning elections. Instead of doing this, George stated in the press release that “Last night was not the beginning of our problems. It was the predictable result of refusing to confront them. And if we continue allowing the same establishment interests to dictate our future, we should expect the same results."

The RINO Establishment continues to cave to the left, deliver no wins, and hand the grassroots loss after loss. The only way Republicans can ever win again in Minnesota is with change and aligning with grassroots conservatives.
