GOP MN Senate candidate Brad Sanford declared personal bankruptcy

[TexasTowelie]

Bradley Sanford, a Republican candidate for the Senate in the northwest suburbs, declared personal bankruptcy in 2014, federal filings show.

The bankruptcy could clash with Sanford’s campaign theme that he is a competent businessman: “(Sanford’s)' education and leadership helped him become a staple in the financial world of Minnesota,” his campaign website reads.

The bankruptcy filing, reported first here, shows liabilities of more than $17,000. Sanford’s assets at the time were just $750 -- attributed entirely to “household goods and furnishings.” He reported earning about $80,000 per year before taxes.

Sanford did not return calls.
