All eyes were on the governor’s race as Minnesota Republicans convened in Rochester to endorse a candidate to challenge Democratic incumbent Gov. Tim Walz in the November election. The 2,200 delegates are under the gun to get their work by a 6 p.m. Saturday deadline for vacating the Mayo Civic Center. All the gubernatorial candidates at the convention have pledged to honor the party’s endorsement and forego the right to run in the Aug. 9 GOP primary, assuming there’s no deadlock. Delegates made their first endorsements Friday when they backed Ryan Wilson to take on State Auditor Julie Blaha, and Kim Crockett to challenge Secretary of State Steve Simon.
