Forward Independence Party Endorses Mike Newcome for Governor of Minnesota

SAINT PAUL, MN — The Forward Independence Party has officially endorsed Mike Newcome for Governor of Minnesota, signaling a major step forward in offering Minnesotans a true common-sense alternative to the partisan politics that have dominated the state for decades.

Newcome, a lifelong Minnesotan from White Bear Lake with a background in business, community service, and pragmatic leadership, said he is "honored to receive the endorsement."

“Minnesotans are tired of the political games, the finger-pointing, and a government that works for special interests instead of the people."

The Forward Independence Party cited Newcome’s commitment to practical problem-solving, fiscal responsibility, community safety, and rebuilding trust in state government as key reasons for their endorsement.

“Mike represents the type of leader Minnesota needs, someone willing to work with anyone, listen to everyone, and put people before party,” the party said in its endorsement statement. “His message reflects what Minnesotans across the political spectrum are calling for: honesty, accountability, and real solutions.”

Newcome emphasized that this campaign isn’t about left or right, it’s about Minnesota.

“We’re building a coalition of Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who are ready for something better,” he said. “Minnesota deserves a government that serves the people, not political parties. Over the next year, we’ll be taking that message to everycorner of the state.”

A public announcement event and press conference will be held at the Minnesota State Capitol on November 20th at 10:00 AM.
