MyPillow CEO and Republican candidate for Minnesota governor Mike Lindell defended his election integrity views and campaign record in a heated ABC News interview as he faces scrutiny in the state’s GOP primary race.

Election Integrity Claims

On Monday, during the interview, Lindell was questioned about his campaign performance, his third-place finish at the state GOP convention, and his continued focus on 2020 election claims.

He argued he has consistently polled strongly and said voters want an outsider with business experience.

"I’ve been polling number one since the first poll that was taken last year," Lindell said.
