John Raese (R-Cand, WV-SEN) has been endorsed by Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty according to Huntington News, a local West Viriginia news site.

Benishek was polling well against Allen just one week ago, but the race tightened up as the election loomed.  No one suspected this result, however.  Few if any elections in | Read More »
