ANGRY AL KNOCKS FOR ENGBRECHT
By Luke Hellier | January 19, 2010
According to the Waseca County News, Senator Al Franken was door knocking for state senate candidate Jason Engbrecht over the weekend:
OWATONNA — U.S. Senator Al Franken arrived in town Saturday morning with a special incentive for Jason Engbrecht and his campaign team.
Franken already offered his endorsement to the Democratic Minnesota District 26 candidate earlier this week, but Saturday he hand-delivered the reward for Engbrecht’s day of door-knocking: a Franni Franken apple pie.
Franni Franken became known as the “pie lady” after her apple pies began raising big money during fundraisers for charity and later Franken’s campaigns.
“It’s frustrating to me because I get to smell it (baking),” Franken said. “She’s a very good baker.”Engbrecht said Saturday he and his campaign hoped to stop into about 3,000 homes in Steele County.
Engbrecht is a physics professor at St. Olaf College in Northfield and Faribault school board member. He said he plans to run his campaign in a traditional manner, making as many phone calls and knocking on as many doors as possible before the Jan. 26 special election which will fill the seat vacated by Dick Day in December.
