Nine Republicans who are running for governor in 2010 are expected to make campaign pitches Thursday at an event in Roseville.
Republicans in House District 54A are hosting the candidates at a political picnic at Roseville's Central Park, from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Organizers say nine GOP candidates for governor have confirmed that they'll attend. The list includes three state representatives: Tom Emmer, Paul Kohls and Marty Seifert. Two state senators: David Hann and Mike Jungbauer. Former state auditor Pat Anderson, as well as Leslie Davis, Bill Haas and Phil Herwig. They say state Rep. Laura Brod might also attend.
The Republican candidates are trying to build support in advance of a state GOP convention October 3rd in St. Paul. GOP delegates will select their preferences for governor at that event in a non-binding straw poll.
The state GOP party will endorse its candidate during a state convention that's scheduled April 2 - May 1, at a yet to be determined location.
