As you may recall, our award-winning alumni W magazine was formerly called Perspectives, a name it has borne since fall 2005. Prior to that, the magazine’s title was Law Alumni News. Today we rename the magazine Minnesota Law, to more closely align it with the Law School’s branding and better connect to our Law School community. After 13 years in the same format, the time also seemed right to freshen and modernize the look and feel of the magazine. We hope you like it, and, as always, we welcome your feedback. These are exciting times at the Law School. During Spring Alumni Weekend, we launched the public phase of the Law School’s Driven to Lead Campaign, a historic $80 million fundraising effort. The money raised through the campaign will be used to: • create transformational programs and superior experiential learning opportunities for students; Law School continues its leadership position in the • recruit and retain world-class faculty members; human rights field.

  • Omnibus June 2019 Dem Primary
    Democratic Dividing Lines Verified Voter Omnibus Survey N=484 Democrats or Democratic leaners June 22 - June 25, 2019 !X!1 Key Findings • Biden’s lead among 24 announced Democratic candidates has narrowed by 6-points since May to 32% of the Democratic vote. • Biden’s 6-point drop came with a concurrent 6-point gain by Elizabeth Warren to 11% of the Democratic vote, or 4- points behind Bernie Sanders who takes 15% of the Democratic vote. • Biden continues to lead both Sanders and Warren in head to head match-ups, but his lead has narrowed to 30-points from both Sanders and Warren, down from 36-points ahead of Sanders and 47-points ahead of Warren in May. • 73% of Democrats plan to watch the debates, or coverage of the debates. Ahead of the kickoff of tonight’s debates, we tested Democratic concern about two recent pieces of news about Biden — his flip flopping on the Hyde Amendment’s impact on access to abortion, and past associations with segregationists. • We found the Hyde Amendment resonates more strongly with Democratic voters, with 39% of Democrats concerned about Biden’s stance on the Hyde Amendment, and 22% concerned about his associations with segregationists. • Particularly concerned are women, African Americans, younger voters, and more educated voters. !2 Methodology • Using a voter file-matched online panel, we surveyed n=1,006 registered voters across the country from June 22 to June 25, 2019, with a sample of 484 Democrats or Democratic-leaning Independents. • With our third monthly tracking survey of 2019, we were able to confirm the voting history of participants and track changes in the attitudes and behaviors of key 2020 voters since our last survey of verified Democratic or Democratic-leaning Independent voters from May 20 to May 21, 2019.

    OFFICE OF GOVERNOR TIM PAWLENTY 130 State Capitol ♦ Saint Paul, MN 55155 ♦ (651) 296-0001 NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Brian McClung January 6, 2010 (651) 296-0001 GOVERNOR PAWLENTY APPOINTS JONES TO AGRICULTURAL CHEMICAL RESPONSE COMPENSATION BOARD Saint Paul – Governor Tim Pawlenty today announced the appointment of Kevin M. Jones to the Agricultural Chemical Response Compensation Board. Jones, of St. James, is the general manager of NuWay Cooperative in Trimont. He has held a number of positions with NuWay during the 15-and-a-half years he has been with the Coop. Previously, he worked in the agronomy and feed division with Watonwan Farm Service, and worked on a family farm. Jones earned an agribusiness management degree from Ridgewater College in Willmar, and is a certified crop advisor. He is a member of the Farm Bureau, Statewide Managers Association, Southern Minnesota Managers Association, Minnesota Petroleum Association, Minnesota Propane Gas Association, Cooperative Network, and Minnesota Crop Protection Retailers.

The program is funded through annual surcharges on pesticide and fertilizer sales, and on applicator and dealer licenses. The ACRRA funds are administered by the Agricultural Chemical Response Compensation Board. The five-member board consists of representatives from the Minnesota Departments of Agriculture and Commerce, and three members appointed by the Governor, including a representative of farmers, agricultural chemical manufacturers and wholesalers, and dealers who sell agricultural chemicals at retail.

  • Biden Is Only Leading Dem to Top Trump in Ohio, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Former V.P
    Peter A. Brown, Assistant Director (203) 535-6203 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: JULY 25, 2019 BIDEN IS ONLY LEADING DEM TO TOP TRUMP IN OHIO, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; FORMER V.P. HAS BIG LEAD IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY Former Vice President Joseph Biden leads President Donald Trump 50 – 42 percent in the critical swing state of Ohio, the only leading Democratic candidate to top the Republican incumbent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. The other leading Democratic contenders each are locked in a dead heat with President Trump, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds: 46 percent for Trump to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders with 45 percent; Trump at 46 percent to Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 45 percent; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and California Sen. Kamala Harris; 44 – 44 percent between Trump and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg; 44 percent for Trump to 43 percent for New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker. Women, black voters and independent voters give Biden his lead in the matchup with Trump. Biden leads 53 – 40 percent among women, as men are split with 46 percent for Biden and 45 percent for Trump. White voters are divided, with 48 percent for Trump and 45 percent for Biden. Black voters go Democratic 84 – 8 percent. Independent voters go to Biden 55 – 32 percent. Republicans back Trump 86 – 10 percent as Biden leads 96 – 2 percent among Democrats. “Former Vice President Joseph Biden calls himself a blue-collar guy. With Ohio certainly a blue-collar state, it is no surprise he is the Democrat who runs best against President Donald Trump and is solidly ahead in the Democratic primary in the Buckeye State,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.

  • Minnesota 2012 President Poll
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 8, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Obama leads all Republicans in MN, Romney bests Pawlenty Raleigh, N.C. – President Obama won Minnesota by about ten points over John McCain two years ago. At this early point in the 2012 cycle, PPP finds that the candidate who comes closest to beating him is not the one who would like to ride his record from two terms as the state’s governor to the White House. In fact, it is the same candidate who comes closest in his own two native states—nearby Michigan and far-away Massachusetts—as well as nationally and in a number of other states: Mitt Romney. But even Romney comes no closer than five points, and Obama tops the candidates other than Romney and Tim Pawlenty by double digits. Pawlenty can only muster 43% to Obama’s 51%, which essentially mirrors the governor’s 43-53 job approval rating as he prepares to leave office. Meanwhile, Romney holds Obama to 47% and gets 42% himself. Mike Huckabee lags, 40-50; Newt Gingrich, 38-51; and Sarah Palin, frequently bringing up the rear, 36-54. As in Michigan, the president has his base almost universally behind him, earning 92% (against Romney) to 95% (Palin and Pawlenty) of Democrats’ votes. But no Republican can do better than 90% of the GOP (Pawlenty); Palin gets only 76%. Obama also wins independents by two (Romney) to 25 points (Palin).
