Minnesota GOP Candidate Drops Out

Minnesota GOP Candidate Drops Out

A man named Chris Madel was running to be the governor of Minnesota as a Republican.

He decided to quit the race because he didn't agree with how the federal government was handling immigration.

He said that the way they were doing things was not fair and was making people scared, especially people of color.

He also thought that the federal officers were doing things that were not allowed by the constitution.

There have been some bad things happening, like people getting shot by these officers, which made more people upset.

Chris Madel was also helping one of the officers who was involved in a shooting, but he still decided to quit the race.

There are other people still running to be governor, both from the Republican and Democratic parties.
