On Thursday, Alpha News hit the streets of Maple Grove to learn about Minnesota voters’ priorities in the coming election, as well as their thoughts on the prospective presidential candidates.
Alpha News found that, as the election approaches, some of the most pressing issues on the forefront of Minnesotans’ minds include the environment, inflation, and immigration.
As for the candidates, most interviewees agreed that President Joe Biden has some form of cognitive impairment. Yet, some of those who professed this to be true nonetheless plan to vote for Biden in November, with one interviewee referring to the prospect of a “dictator” in Donald Trump to be a much greater concern.
