Dayton: “You have my story for the day.”
Former U.S. Sen. Mark Dayton officially kicked off his campaign for governor today after being in the race for a year. After the announcement, Dayton took just three questions from reporters after parading six supporters up to the podium to introduce him. He also gave a ten minute speech.
Dayton said he wouldn't take any more questions when I tried to follow up in the hallway. His response: "You have my story for the day."
I'll post video of his announcement and his brief q and a session when it's converted.
Here's Dayton's speech:
