Lynne Torgerson, who garnered little support last year running as an Independent against Rep. Keith Ellison in the 5th District, plans to try again, reports Minnesota Independent:
Announcing her plans on the Tea Party Nation website, Torgerson called Ellison a “radical Islamist” and said he “fails to oppose banning Islamic Sharia law in the United States.”
Notes the story:
Torgerson lost the race in 2010, garnering 3 percent of the vote versus Ellison’s 69 percent. During that bid she secured the backing of the Tea Party Nation.
