Minnesota Public Radio:
During a State Fair debate sponsored by Minnesota Public Radio, Democrat Mark Dayton, Republican Tom Emmer and the Independence Party's Tom Horner took turns defending their own views on taxes and state spending. Before a rowdy and standing-room-only crowd, each offered harsh critiques of their rivals.
Right off the bat, Emmer defended his view that next year's projected $5.8 billion state budget deficit is simply a result of government spending run amok. He repeated his promise not to raise taxes, while criticizing Dayton's proposal to increase income taxes on the wealthy and Horner's proposed sales tax expansion.
