KSTP’s Fake Poll Propaganda Just Got Obliterated – Here’s the REAL List of 27 Candidates the DFL Syndicate Is Desperately Hiding

KSTP’s Fake Poll Propaganda Just Got Obliterated – Here’s the REAL List of 27 Candidates the DFL Syndicate Is Desperately Hiding

Oh, bless their little hearts. Tom Hauser and the KSTP crew just dropped another one of those precious SurveyUSA “polls” crowning Amy Klobuchar queen of Minnesota, 14–20 points ahead of a cherry-picked handful of Republicans. Weighted heavy on Democrats, online sample, ignores the field… classic. It’s not polling. It’s ventriloquism. The DFL machine is moving the dummy’s mouth while the real grift keeps humming in the background.

Meanwhile, on the official Minnesota Campaign Finance & Public Disclosure Board site (right now, February 2026), 27 actual candidates have opened committees and filed paperwork for Governor. Not “exploratory.” Not “maybe someday.” Real IDs, real registration dates, real committees on file.

Here they are, straight from the CFB table – the ones the gatekeepers, the corporate media arm, and the foreign puppet masters don’t want you seeing:

Republican (RPM) – 14

• Bennett, Peggy (registered 1/1/2026, took public subsidy)

• Demuth, Lisa (11/11/2025, subsidy)

• Estrada Sr, Raul J (11/26/2025)

• Evenstad, Thomas (8/26/2025)

• Jensen, Scott Mitchell (7/17/2025, subsidy)

• Johnson, Jeff (8/29/2025)

• Knight, Patrick (11/5/2025, subsidy)

• Kohler, Brad (4/22/2025, subsidy)

• Krhin, John Thomas (11/25/2025)

• Lindell, Mike (12/3/2025)

• Madel, Chris (12/4/2025) [news says he quit, but CFB still shows him filed]

• Parrish, Phillip (11/18/2024 – yours truly, been in this fight longest)

• Qualls, Kendall (5/8/2025)

• Robbins, Kristin (8/26/2025)

DFL – 7

• Bakk, Thomas M (5/27/2008 – yeah, that old)

• Gates Jr, Bill E (11/5/2025, subsidy)

• Klobuchar, Amy (1/22/2026 – filed right before the poll, cute timing)

• Layne, Kobey J (1/28/2026)

• Savior, Ole (5/23/2022)

• Seymore, Christopher (12/29/2025)

• Walz, Tim (3/27/2017 – still on the books even after the fraud scandal forced him out)

Other / Independence Party (IPMN) – 6

• Kedrowski, Adam J (5/1/2025, subsidy)

• Larson Jr, Calvin (7/22/2025, subsidy)

• Newcome, Michael (11/14/2025, IPMN)

• Nicollet, Hannah P (5/23/2014, IPMN)

• Patterson, Steve (10/22/2025)

• Swarm, Harley (10/12/2009)

That’s the full roster the syndicate pretends doesn’t exist. While KSTP runs its little puppet show, these 27 Minnesotans actually stepped up, filed the paperwork, and said “enough.”

This is the same criminal syndicate that’s been looting the treasury for decades – daycare fraud, COVID relief theft, rigged elections, nonprofit slush funds, and now the massive social-services scandal that finally made Walz tuck tail. They’re bleeding citizens dry, destroying families, schools, farms, and small businesses, all while their media mouthpieces like KSTP gaslight you with “polls” and their foreign puppet masters keep the cash flowing through the back channels.

The two-party cartel isn’t a republic – it’s organized crime wearing suits and waving flags. And 80%+ of Minnesotans aren’t wedded to either label. We’re independents, fed-up patriots, working people who’ve watched this machine turn our state into their personal ATM.

This thieving, grifting, exploiting, coercing, manipulating machine must be dismantled. No more. No mercy. No false equivalence. The guilty are sweating because the light is finally hitting the cockroaches.

The 80% are the sleeping giant. Wake up, Minnesota. The real race isn’t Amy vs. a couple hand-picked names. It’s the people versus the syndicate. Time to end the exploitation. Time to reclaim this constitutional republic.

Keep the faith. Stay vigilant. Let’s tear it down.

Phillip C. Parrish
