Rep. Jim Hagedorn coming to Olmsted Co. for Town Hall.....

On Friday, June 28th, 2019 at the Heinz Center at Rochester Community and Technical College. 6:30pm.

County residents with ID only are allowed to ask questions. No political signs, shirts, buttons allowed. No recording devices allowed.

Rest assured Democrats will be there in full force to show this Trump hack that he is NOT doing his job for the people of the 1st CD, but serving Trump loyally. Farmers in the 1st are hurting. Fields are still bare here. I noticed that on the way to Austin yesterday for a CD- 1 convention.

How is it in your part of the state?

FORMER 1st district rep Rod Blum. It really backfired on him.

But what I am curious about is how they plan to stop folks from pulling out their cell phones and recording what's going on? Man, that will really piss folks off.

At his first town hall. There were more Police present than actual people who showed up.

Jim Hagedorn has every reason to feel afraid. He is not well liked here, though he won by little over 1,000 votes.
