* Bump
Well it's the end 0f 2023, less than 2 months before MN precinct caucuses, and Republicans still do not have a serious candidate. In theory Republicans have until the early June filing deadline to find a real candidate but given the importance that is normally placed on the caucus/convention endorsement any C list or better candidate would be in by now. There will be someone on the ballot against Klobuchar but I highly doubt it is someone of substance.
There's really no denying at this point, that Klobuchar is going to substantially lose a lot of her crossover support even against a sacrificial lamb. Both Schumer and Wyden saw a lot of counties swing against them in 2022 despite their candidates being considered jokes for example, still she's not in any danger either. About a 14 point win seems realistic.
