If asked to sum up your home state in one tweet, I'd choose this one for mine.
A thing that I love is Minnesotans being incensed that I mentioned Colorado's very high turnout (tied for No. 2 in 2020), without citing Minnesota, which is very often No. 1.

This is indicative of a collective whose media bends over backwards to find a "local angle" in any national news story, regardless of how inconsequential (Remember how the word "Minnesota" showed up once in the Mueller Report??). So if we actually lead the nation in something, we demand our kudos, dammit!!
