This is getting good. The Minnesota GOP endorsed candidate for Supreme Court, Michelle MacDonald, could be getting ready for a fight Friday Morning at the Minnesota State Fair over access to the official Republican booth reserved for endorsed candidates.
From Politics.MN
MacDonald was informed this afternoon about the decision by Keith Downey, the chairman of the Republican Party of Minnesota. MacDonald was banned from the fair booth by an e-mail vote conducted by members of the Republican Party of Minnesota’s State Executive Committee in the last 24 hours.
The vote to ban MacDonald from the Republican Party of Minnesota’s fair booth was confirmed by multiple members of the executive committee.
MacDonald has an upcoming trial next month after being arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and resisting arrest in 2013. MacDonald was also ticketed earlier this month by the Minnesota State Patrol on Interstate 94 in Monticello, for violating conditions of her limited license to drive.

Per Politics.MN- MacDonald still will plan on entering the GOP booth. If she does, she could face arrest according to sources.
She is facing Democrat David Lillehaug. The State DFL Party does not endorse Supreme Court nominees.
