Romney Readies For Minnesota Stop

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney is scheduled to visit Minnesota on Wednesday, less than a week before the state's caucuses.

Romney will appear with former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty at 1 p.m. at Freightmasters, a trucking company in the southern suburb of Eagan. It's Romney's first visit to the state and will come fresh off Florida's primary.

Minnesota has 40 delegates up for grabs, but its caucuses are nonbinding.

Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum campaigned Monday night in Luverne, Minn. Texas congressman Ron Paul rallied last November in St. Cloud.
