This was a smart choice for him and for Minnesota Dems in general.  If he ran for governor, the seat would be gone (probably even more gone than MN-01 is because at least Rochester is trending Dem there) and he would probably just split the rural and moderate vote with Walz and let a far left some dude through the primary.

If Trump's margin in MN-08 is the new norm, then Dems are in big trouble going forward at the statewide level in Minnesota.

That is a humongous if
