                                              Peaceful view of downtown Minneapolis seems to tell the low 
                                                        temperature of Minnesotan's reaction toward Sen. Amy Klobu-
                                                        char's running for the presidential race. 

After Sen. Amy Klobuchar announced she is joining the 2020 presidential race on Feb. 10, Minnesotans' reactions seem tepid.

Minnesota’s three-term senior U.S. senator Klobuchar launched her presidential campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. During her speech, she spoke about money issues in politics, climate change, and election reform and tried to convince people to vote, according to Star Tribune.

Klobuchar got in the spotlight after she made some awkward exchanges with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh at the hearing. It seemed to evoke positive reactions of the public including Minnesotans which could contribute to a good result of the election, but some expect her potential problems which would make hard to win the election.

Jeremy Rose, who is a professor of communication studies, said,  "She is a popular, and good senator, but I don't think that can translate into winning the race." He added, "She is not well enough known outside of Minnesota."

Rose also said there were Minnesotan candidates who tried to run for presidential elections such as Walter Mondale, but he lost it by a large margin. "It would be great to see a Minnesotan becoming a president, but I doubt it would ever happen," he said.

Frank Hutton, a senior student at the University of Minnesota, said he doesn't see a positive election result for her and he will be really surprised if she wins the election. "As a Minnesotan, I think that it would bring advantages to have a Minnesotan president, but I don't expect her to win," he said.

Some people don't even know she is running for the 2020 presidential election. Stephanie Stoerzinger, who is a librarian at Walter Library at University of Minnesota, said she didn't even know Klobuchar is joining the election because she and her friends never talk about politics. She said, "I honestly don't know about it because I am not really into politics." Another student, Larissa Lennartson, also said she has no idea what is going on Klobuchar and the 2020 presidential election, but it would be a pride to see a Minnesotan president.

The reactions of Minnesotans toward her announcement is subsiding slowly.
