Lisa Demuth, a Minnesota political figure, posted a series of tweets in March 2026 addressing state pride, her campaign, and legislative priorities.
On March 9, Demuth congratulated participants in the state hockey tournaments by stating: “Minnesota remains the state of hockey. Congrats to all the competitors who made it to St. Paul in both the boys and girls state hockey tournaments.”
The following day, on March 10, she highlighted her campaign partnership with Ryan D. Wilson as her running mate for lieutenant governor. She wrote: “I’m proud to have @RyanDWilsonMN as my lieutenant governor running mate. He and I are both lifelong Minnesotans and know what it’s like to raise a family on the income of a small business owner. We’re ready to deliver a stronger, better Minnesota where families and businesses can”
Later that same day, Demuth addressed education policy efforts by House Republicans: “Today, House Republicans stood shoulder to shoulder and called on Gov. Walz and Democrats to join us in passing legislation that will allow Minnesota to opt into the Federal Tax Credit Scholarship, which gives families extra support they need to get help for students struggling.”
The Federal Tax Credit Scholarship program referenced by Demuth is designed to provide tax credits for donations supporting scholarships for students from low- and middle-income families. These scholarships are intended to expand educational opportunities by enabling more students access to private or alternative schooling options.
Minnesota has a longstanding tradition of high school hockey excellence, with annual state tournaments drawing significant attention from communities across the state.
