MN State Republican party has $53.00 in the bank

Well, they're not overdrawn so I guess we can call that fiscally responsible.

Minnesota has not voted Republican in a presidential contest in over 50 years — the longest any state in the entire country has gone without doing so. But the GOP has still managed to elect a number of noteworthy Republicans from the state, from Rep. Tom Emmer, who previously chaired the GOP's congressional fundraising arm to former Rep. Michele Bachmann, who recently argued that slavery was not "sinful."

Years and years of major losses, however, appear to have taken their toll on the party, as it is now almost completely broke.

According to the latest filings with the Federal Election Commission, the Republican Party of Minnesota has just $53.81 in the bank — not even enough money to buy a single Amazon Fire tablet with Prime Day discounts applied. By contrast, the party is reporting almost $334,000 in debts.

All of this comes as the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party recently gained full control of the state legislature, and is working with Gov. Tim Walz to pass a flurry of progressive legislation, from voting rights to gun reforms to universal school lunches.

Cue the sad trombone sound.
