I have met Dean Phillips a few times. Smart guy and very down to earth.

When still living in Rochester, I was a State DFL Delegate in 2018 and 2022. He and the rest of the Congressional Delegation was there. Ilhan Omar gave rousing speeches to standing ovations. As did all the State DFLers from Tim Walz on down.

If you research State DFL May 2022 convention photos, you might find one of me in my Red Hat with the Paul Wellstone button from 2002. I made the front Page on the Star-Tribune that Saturday morning May 21st. I had no idea that was going to happen. The ST photographer asked me my name, why I was a Delegate, and could he take my picture.
