Crowd of about 350-500 gathering outside Minnesota State Capitol for "Storm The Capitol" protest against Biden certification. Speakers have included state Reps @SteveDraz & @EricLuceroMN so far. State judge who approved absentee voting rule changes being singled out early on. 
More from the Capitol: State patrol is guarding entrances to buildings on the complex. No signs of clashes with law enforcement that have been seen in DC. One demonstrator is waiving a large III% militia flag, more are waving pro-Trump signs and flags.
Nearly all gathered here are not wearing masks, and some are carrying signs in protest of Gov. Walz's COVID restrictions. Hold The Line group that is organizing is also behind new weekly caravans to protest outside lawmakers' homes. More soon, including story at @StarTribune
Not long after another speaker applauded states whose governors allowed citizens to choose whether to wear a mask, man turned to me: "THE FUCK YOU WEARING A MASK FOR?!"
