	Governor of Minnesota - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Veto Power of the Governor of Minnesota
		In 1917, the Minnesota Attorney General had issued an opinion that said that the return of a vetoed bill could only be made while the house of origin was in actual session, and that the Governor could retain the bill in his possession until the opening of the next session of that body.
		The Governor’s staff simply lost the ability to distinguish between bills whose return was time-sensitive and bills that could be handled as part of the normal crush of work at the end of the session.
		In Delaware, an attempt by the Governor to veto a rider to an appropriation, after being found invalid, was found to have invalidated the entire section containing the appropriation, since it showed that the Governor had not given his unqualified approval to the appropriation section in question.

	Former wrestler becomes governor of Minnesota
		"Governor Body," as he called himself, would be the Reform Party's first governor, facing a state legislature in which his party has not a single representative.
		Minnesota's two senators reflect that, with Paul Wellstone (D) perhaps the Senate's most unreconstructed liberal and Rod Grams (R) among its most conservative voices.
		Minnesota, hardly known for revolutionary fervor, is nonetheless a place where a smile and a wink go a long way.

		It's already cost his girlfriend her job, and the Minnesota Pagan community has watched this in horror, collective mouths agape.
		The Pagans I have spoken to as a group are both horrified that this guy is trying to represent all Pagans, and on the other hand equally disgusted his girlfriend lost her job over this.
		Now, to the real rub: this guy, by taking on the name "Vamprys, Witches and Pagans", gives the rest of the state and thus country the idea that because folks use those terms to identify their religious beliefs, they agree with his religious beliefs.
