ST. CLOUD, MN (KNSI) - The details are still in the planning stages, but it looks like President Barack Obama may make a visit to Minnesota this summer.
The tentative visit is scheduled for June 1st, the day before the DFL starts its state convention in Rochester. The president's time here will likely involve a mix of events, including fundraising. More details were expected to be revealed closer to the arrival date.
Obama's previous visit to Minnesota was last August on a Midwest bus tour that went from Cannon Falls all the way to Illinois.
