Mark your calendars:
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., will pay a repeat visit to Duluth next week. He’ll also be in Minneapolis earlier in the day.
Sanders, who rocked an enthusiastic audience of thousands in January 2016 in Duluth, will speak at 5 p.m. Friday, July 13, at Denfeld High School on behalf of U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, DFL-Minn., who is running to be Minnesota’s attorney general.
Sanders will visit Duluth three weeks and two days after President Donald Trump, who stumped on behalf of Republican congressional candidate Pete Stauber at Amsoil Arena on June 20. Like Sanders, Trump also rallied in the Twin Ports on his own behalf while running for president in 2016, speaking in Superior that April.
Sanders on Friday endorsed Ellison, saying that as attorney general he would give Minnesota “a fighter for working people, the discriminated-against and the economically oppressed.”
