MINNEAPOLIS
–
Dan Kimmel, a Democratic candidate for the Minnesota House ended his campaign Sunday, hours after he tweeted that the Islamic State group "isn't necessarily evil" and its members were doing what they thought was best for their community.
The tweet led House Minority Leader Paul Thissen to call for Kimmel to apologize and immediately end his campaign, saying Kimmel's comment doesn't reflect the views of the House DFL caucus.
"I will do everything I can to help resolve the issue: most likely the best thing for me to do is shut up," Kimmel said.
