for victory
Meet the Candidates in Alexandria, MN with Douglas Co. DFL on Monday 6/8/26
If you ever see me hold up this symbol
it isn’t intended to be a peace sign. It is a “V” for victory symbol. Count the s in the picture above. I see at least 10. When I look at this picture, I see the product of people standing up to fight for what is right. People who have developed a relationship and banded together in a common cause. The quest for something better.
Our path to victory continues to be building relationships at scale and nothing that happened over the past week suggests otherwise. I made 11 stops since last week’s update. And our Team had a presence in multiple places beyond that.
There are only 20 more Mondays between now & the midterm elections. If we are gonna flip Minnesota’s 7th Congressional District, we can’t squander a second. Hope you will join us. There are many ways to help. You can volunteer, donate, or forward this email to a friend.
I was honored to speak at the Lower Sioux Indian Community Wacipi in Morton, MN 6/14/26.

A Look Back
Our busiest day last week was Wednesday in Chippewa County. We made 6 stops during that visit. We started with coffee & conversations with the candidates in Clara City. Then toured 3 area manufacturing businesses and had lunch with a local government employee. We capped it all off with a commUNITY fish fry at the American Legion in Montevideo. We were pleasantly surprised when over 100 people showed up! Huge thanks to the American Legion staff for their hard work. Grateful for everyone who came out to break bread & create community.

Parade season is in full swing. There were multiple opportunities for people to take action last week. Team Osberg was out in force. We had a great presence at the Wadena June Jubilee parade as well as the Fergus Falls SummerFest parade in neighboring Otter Tail County. If you would like to walk with us in a parade, click here.
MN DFL CD7 Chair Jen Cronin has been everywhere. Here she is with a great crew in Fergus Falls, MN.
