Humane candidate Barb Goodwin will face off against incumbent Satveer Chaudhary in one week in an important primary election for Minnesota’s animals.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune endorsement begins with a strong opener:

“Even if her primary opponent weren’t ethically challenged or hadn’t until recently owed $251,000 in back taxes, veteran legislator Barb Goodwin would be the clear choice for DFL voters in this north-central suburban district’s state Senate race.”  It mentions that her main opponent, incumbent Satveer Chaudhary, who has been formally rebuked by a Senate ethics panel and who has had his DFL endorsement stripped from him, “just doesn’t get it”.  And it ends with a robust call for change.

The primary on August 10th will determine which candidate will continue to the general election in November, and this article sends Goodwin to the polls with an impressive endorsement.
