Clay Travis, Outkick: “Michele Tafoya is running for senate as a Republican in Minnesota. The state desperately needs at least one sane leader.”

Hill: “Tafoya’s entry into the race delivers Republicans a key recruit in the state and will force Democrats to spend at least some money in a blue-leaning state, especially as they have grappled with a statewide fraud scandal.”

Josh Holmes, Ruthless Podcast Host and Minnesotan: “Gotta give a lot of credit to Michele for stepping up here. Will watch to see where this goes but MN GOP needed a spark to dethrone a horribly corrupt DFL establishment.”

Dustin Grage, Minnesota Republican activist: “I haven’t endorsed a single statewide candidate in Minnesota until now. @Michele_Tafoya is the first. Just donated to her campaign. If you want real leadership, I encourage you to do the same.”

CNN: “Michele Tafoya, a longtime sportscaster and conservative commentator, has officially announced she will run for US Senate in Minnesota, giving the Republican Party a well-known candidate in a state that’s being roiled by the ongoing federal immigration crackdown.”

Riley Gaines, women’s sports activist: “She didn’t stop using her voice when it became uncomfortable… she’s become one of the most clear eyed and courageous voices speaking out about what’s happening in her home state.”

Chris Stigall, The Chris Stigall Show: “Let’s go, @Michele_Tafoya!!”

David Marcus, Fox News: “Great ad. Great candidate.”

Kurt Schlichter, veteran and Townhall columnist: “If @Michele_Tafoya  has the support of @LarryOConnor, the @RuthlessPodcast gang, @yesnicksearcy and a bunch of other folks, I’m in.”

Daily Caller: “Tafoya sharply criticized Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan and Rep. Angie Craig, the Democratic candidates in the race, who are engaged in a vicious battle for the party’s base voters ahead of the August primary.”

Sage Steele, The Sage Steele Show: “I am so excited that you’ve made this decision, and proud. For you to take this step, is so much bigger than sports. This is about our country.”

Chris Salcedo, The Chris Salcedo Show: “Minnesota should consider this upgrade… The leftists who have made Minnesota synonymous with corruption and crime have earned a strong rebuke from those who still consider themselves Americans!”

NBC: “Tafoya’s entering as a well-known reporter and relative political outsider could give her party a boost… she could also have some bipartisan appeal.”

Liam Donovan, Conservative Commentator: “Minnesota has been one of the GOP’s toughest statewide challenges over the past two decades, but landing a candidate with name ID and personal appeal outside of the political realm is significant, especially when paired with solid choreography like the NRSC endorsement.”

Jeff Vaughn, The Daily News Drop: “Former NFL sideline reporter, and a damn good one, Michelle Tafoya wants to call the plays in MN…”

Dave Rubin, Rubin Report: “Occasionally some good people get involved in politics. Go Michele! 🇺🇸💪

Brendan Jaspers, NRSC: “Michele puts Minnesota in play as Democrats are fractured, fighting, and roiled by fraud. The DFL is panicking and in desperate need of a halftime adjustment.”

Dustin Grage, Minnesota Republican Activist: “In less tha[n] two hours… @Michele_Tafoya’s announcement has already surpassed all other GOP candidates combined. The instant front-runner for the Republican nomination.”

Jim Innocenzi, GOP Strategist: “We need more people like @Michele_Tafoya with a ready made brand to have the courage to step off the sidelines and onto the field to lead. It’s not pretty out there. Good luck.”

Brian McClung, Minnesota entrepreneur: “’I’m not gonna stay on the sidelines any longer.’ — the best line to kick off a campaign I’ve heard in a long time, @Michele_Tafoya #USSenateMN”

Gerry Callahan, The Callahan Show: “.@Michele_Tafoya will be a SPECTACULAR candidate. Had enough yet, Minnesota?”

Jonathan Garthwaite, Townhall Publisher: “Exactly what Minnesota needs right now.”

Michael Sobolik, Hudson Institute: “I’ve really enjoyed getting to know @Michele_Tafoya over the past few years! She understands the threat the Chinese Communist Party poses to the American people.”

Jimmy Peacock, GOP Strategist: “Huge recruiting get for Senate Republicans. Expands the map with a compelling candidate.”
