Just a few days ago, the Minnesota Republican Party endorsed attorney Michelle MacDonald's bid for a state Supreme Court seat. On Thursday, state Republican Party Chairman Keith Downey found out MacDonald has been accused of drunken driving and her case is pending. 

“None of us, including the convention delegates, were aware of this information about the candidate,” Downey told The Minneapolis Star Tribune. “She, of course, is innocent until proven guilty, but at the same time, the delegates did not have the full disclosure they should have.”
