Mankato Free Press: Governor
Johnson's speech delivered at Monte
video was replete with all the good
deeds performed by the last two 70

people are not entirely satisfied with
the primary election as it stands today.
There is too much opportunity for vOt-
ers jumping in and voting the ticket Of

sible.
