Gregory Mikkelson

The Lake Crystal soybean and corn farmer has run three times for the U.S. House as a Green Party candidate, an Independence Party candidate and a Republican. This time he’s running with the Independence Party with a focus on curbing the national debt and government spending. Mikkelson says the country’s borders should be open to lawful immigrants, but that illegal immigrants shouldn’t receive government care. He refused to address his stance on abortion, gay marriage and the environment, saying that government already has too much control and shouldn’t meddle in the daily lives of Americans.
