The Minnesota Secretary of State reports that businessman Mike Lindell, the U.S. President Donald Trump-endorsed Republican candidate for governor, lacks an active voter registration in Minnesota.
Lindell says he moved to Texas in 2024 after marrying, registered there, and returned to Minnesota in 2025, ending his Texas registration.
