MyPillow CEO and Minnesota gubernatorial candidate Mike Lindell announces a lieutenant governor running mate as part of his bid for governor. Lindell makes the announcement on Monday during an appearance connected with Steve Bannon’s “War Room” show, where he reveals his choice for lieutenant governor. He selects retired Navy Lt. Cmdr. Phillip Parish, described as a former Navy intelligence officer. The two outlets also note that Lindell’s campaign began in December, and that his run for governor is widely characterized as a long shot. Parish, a Republican, is further described by one source as having previously been a gubernatorial candidate, though details beyond that characterization are not fully laid out in the provided excerpts. The announcement sets the campaign’s leadership ticket for the state-level race, with Lindell seeking the governorship and Parish serving as the designated running mate for lieutenant governor if the ticket advances in the election.
