Remember the seniors

Dayton plans press conference to kick off a "Serve our Seniors" tour

June 23, 2010 at 3:03PM

Remember when we wrote about how important the senior vote is going to be in the DFL primary?

Here are some more bits of evidence -- on Wednesday DFL candidate Mark Dayton and his running mate will "detail their plan to better serve Minnesota's senior citizens" and kick off a three-day tour of senior centers with a tour they've dubbed "Serve Our Seniors." (It's the Dayton campaign's first tour branded with a name -- it had previously branded a campaign tour with numbers.)

DFL rival Matt Entenza is looking for a piece of the senior action, too. His campaign recently sent out a mailing touting "Real Results for Seniors," which features photos of Entenza talking to people with quite a bit of gray in their hair.
