Torrey Westrom hasn't had anything to say about the fake Collin Peterson website the NRCC put up back in February, or the more recent fake Collin Peterson twitter account created by America Rising, but the Republican state senator told citizens at a town hall meeting that the state's duly elected Governor and legislature are "mob rule."
Via the Morris Sun, Al Edenloff of the Forum News Service reports in Area lawmakers decry 'mob rule' of Legislature:
Westrom said the bonding bill contained “very few Republican projects.” He added that having the Senate, House and governor’s office all controlled by the DFL amounted to “mob rule.”
This is a curious statement from a person running to increase the Republican majority in the United States House of Representatives--or running for any office in Minnesota and the United States. Conservatives are fond of saying that the United States is a representative republic; perhaps Westrom believes that his colleagues came to St. Paul by some other means of selection.
