Hennepin & Ramsey account for more than 1/4 of the population, so it may still be too early to tell. I suspect that is why Ellison is out to a commanding lead right out of the door (his district was mostly in Hennepin Co.) - I am expecting that lead to shrink, but probably not enough to lose.

Walz doing well in the Twin Cities his a good sign for his campaign - my district was pretty evenly split between Walz and Murphy in the Feb. caucuses.
