Former U.S. senator Dayton reacts to broken calls in Chisago County
Former U.S. senator Mark Dayton, now DFL gubernatorial candidate, made a vow in Chisago County on Saturday night.
Three times his cell phone conversation with American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Council 5 Director Eliot Seide was disconnected by the cell phone company.
“At which point I made a vow,” said Dayton, speaking today (Oct. 24) at a Capitol press conference announcing Council 5′s endorsement of Dayton for governor, “which I’m glad to state publicly.”
“That if I’m governor, they’ll be cell coverage from border to border as a condition of these companies operating (in Minnesota),” said Dayton.
Greater Minnesota should enjoy the same cell phone coverage as enjoyed in the metro, Dayton explained.
