Rep. Michele Bachmann is returning home.
To Minnesota, that is.
Bachmann, who has spent much of the past year campaigning in Iowa and other early primary states, is headed to Minnesota this month for a town hall and fundraiser.
She'll be in downtown Minneapolis on Oct. 27 at the Minneapolis Hilton, where her campaign his hosting a 4 p.m. town hall, 6 p.m. reception and 7 p.m. dinner.
Bachmann has talked up her Iowa roots in her presidential campaign, frequently mentioning on the trail that she was born in Waterloo. But the Sixth District congresswoman still has a base of support in Minnesota, and she raised $102,000 last quarter in Minnesota compared to $25,000 in Iowa, Federal Election Commission records show.
Bachmann's last campaign stop in Minnesota was on Sept. 1, when she spoke at the American Legion national convention.
Tickets for the Oct. 27 Minneapolis event range from $50 to $5,000 per person.
Supporters get into the town hall for $50, into the reception and a photo for $100, and into the dinner at $250 per couple. At $5000 per person or $10,000 per couple, the "host committee" level, you get six tickets to a private reception and eight to the town hall.
