Entenza to announce his running mate via Twitter

Democrat Matt Entenza's campaign for governor announced today that Entenza will announce his running mate via Twitter.

"This campaign has been reaching out to voters in social media since the beginning," Entenza's campaign manager said in a news release. "It's about engaging our supporters and future supporters wherever they are; giving them the first opportunity to hear what we have to say. Social media today are some of the best venues for getting news out quickly to a wide audience."

Entenza's announcement will come before the June 1 filing deadline. Entenza is running in the DFL primary against DFL House Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher and former U.S. Sen. Mark Dayton.
