McGowan said Erlandson, not State Rep. Keith Ellison, is the best candidate on public safety issues. McGowan sharply criticized Ellison, the DFL-endorsed candidate.
“He’s never been a supporter of law enforcement in the state Legislature. He’s never been a supporter of law enforcement locally. He’s the first one out to criticize law enforcement, and has never been a friend of law enforcement, and never will be,” McGowan said. “There’s a big difference in saying what you’re going to do and doing what you say. I think the best indicator of future performance is past behavior.”
McGowan is the Hennepin County Sherriff.
