Attorney General Keith Ellison: I’m Keith Ellison. I’ve spent my career fighting for the people of Minnesota.

So, when somebody steals from us, whether it’s a care center or a crooked corporation, it’s personal.

I’ve made hundreds of fraud convictions, lowered your costs, and won back billions.

My opponent? He’ll take orders from the biggest fraudster in American history: Donald Trump.

Republican Attorney General nominee Ron Schutz: The plan is to approach the White House and see if they would be interested in playing a role in this race.

Attorney General Keith Ellison: He’ll work for Trump. I’ll always work for you.
