Sen. Amy Klobuchar to Announce Presidential Candidacy

 
Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota is set to announce her candidacy for President of the United States. The announcement will take place this Wednesday.

According to Politico:

Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar will hold an event in Minnesota on Sunday to announce whether she will run for president, she said Tuesday night, inching closer to a possible campaign launch.

Klobuchar told MSNBC that she will announce her decision on Sunday in Minneapolis’ Boom Island Park — “as in, Boom Island, ‘drop the mic,’” she said.

“It’s going to be a little cold, 20 degrees,” Klobuchar said, speaking after President Donald Trump's State of the Union address. “Wear warm clothes. Maybe have, you know, little heat-warmers with you, but then you’ll find out my decision.”

Klobuchar immediately posted on Twitter: “I’m making a big announcement on Sunday. Join me there,” directing users to RSVP on her website.

Klobuchar has also announced she will be visiting Iowa, firmly cementing herself as a contender for the top job.
