Leading Independence Party Candidate Will Discuss Vision and a Strategy for Winning
News Conference May 4, 9:30 a.m., Minnesota State Capitol
SAINT PAUL, Minn., April 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following is being released by Horner2010:
What:
Tom Horner will be joined by former U.S. Senator David Durenberger, family, friends, and volunteers as he officially launches his campaign for governor of Minnesota. Tom will discuss why he is running, his vision for Minnesota and how he wins in 2010.
Who:
-Tom Horner, principal and co-founder, Himle Horner, a public relations/public affairs firm
-Former U.S. Senator, David Durenberger
*Interviews available after press conference
Why:
2010 is the year in which the Independence Party can reclaim the governor's office:
- With no incumbent in the race and no statewide federal elections (the last time this happened was 1998), the public's focus is on Minnesota's future.
- Candidates coming from the Legislature start with high negatives. According to a survey conducted by the highly regarded public affairs firm Decision Resources Ltd. and as reported by the St. Paul Pioneer Press, 75 percent of Minnesotans rate the Legislature as "only fair" or "poor."
- A Rasmussen Reports survey (March 11, 2010) found that leading Democratic and Republican candidates had high negatives and soft support.
Tom Horner has a 30-year record in Minnesota business, community service, public policy and politics. He understands the real challenges Minnesotans face and the opportunities we have if we make the right decisions.
