Minnesota is just one of twelve states where the treasurer role is appointed instead of being elected. It isn't uncommon.

The governor needs to choose someone who isn't afraid to call them like they see them and let them do their jobs without interference. Like Biden did with AG Garland for example.

Is the insinuation being made that Walz appointed someone who was afraid to point out fraud in fear of being fired?
