From the Startribune:
Comedian Bill Maher will visit Northfield on Tuesday to launch his campaign to kick Republican U.S. Rep. John Kline out of Congress.
The host of HBO's "Real Time" and political satirist will lead a panel discussion at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Grand Event Center.
The panel includes Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges, former Minnesota House Speaker Steve Sviggum and John Rouleau, executive director of the Minnesota Jobs Coalition are among the panelists.
Maher announced Kline as the winner of his “Flip A District” contest in September after he ended up as the "winning loser" in contest to determine the incumbent that most viewers wanted to vote out of office.
During his visit, Maher plans to discuss student loan debt, an issue that’s likely to resonate in Northfield, home to St. Olaf and Carleton colleges.
Kline, chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee, is seeking a seventh term in Congress representing the Second District, which covers suburbs and exurbs south of the Twin Cities. He’ll face Democrat Mike Obermueller and Independence Party candidate Paula Overby in November.
