Candidate Conversations with Jeff Ettinger, Democratic Congressional candidate for Minnesota’s 1st District

Today is one of our bonus pods leading to the midterms to bring attention to races across the country that are incredibly important, winnable and getting basically no press. Today I’m thrilled to be talking to Democratic Congressional candidate for Minnesota’s 1st District, Jeff Ettinger. Jeff is the previous CEO of the Minnesota’s meat packing giant Hormel Foods, the leader of Hormel’s foundation, a professor of business at the local university and the Democrats chance of flipping a red seat blue right after the special election in August chose to keep it red. Jeff is the the perfect example of how the Democratic Party, unlike its opponent, is not a monolith. That we have many different voices brought together by our shared set of values. We might have different ways of looking at business or tax rates, but at the end of the day we believe in democracy, human rights and the importance of the will of the American people. Jeff will work for Minnesota, his opponent will work for Republican leadership and is happy to just be one more vote for the extremist faction of what used to be the Republican Party. We can win this seat, but we can also show people that the Democrats are not just the socialist, communist monsters they make us out to be. If we were, Jeff wouldn’t be running.
