On the trail….

The next four weeks are going to be a bit busy for the candidates for governor. In particular, the DFL and IP parties have competitive primaries.

With that in mind, here's a look at the debates and MPR appearances the candidates will make. (Note: Republican Tom Emmer will be invited to be on Midday after the August 10th Primary and appeared on Midmorning in June.)

Tuesday, July 20th, 9AM, MPR's Midmorning with Margaret Anderson Kelliher, Mark Dayton and Matt Entenza.

Monday, July 26th, 9AM, MPR's Midmorning at 9AM with IP candidates Rob Hahn and Tom Horner.
