(St. Paul, MN) -- Former state senator Scott Jensen is the GOP leader for the governor's seat after a straw boll cast at in-person caucuses Tuesday.  

State Senator Paul Gazelka, Neil Shah, Kendall Qualls, Lexington Mayor Mike Murphy, and state Senator Michelle Benson rounded out the field.  

All the top candidates have agreed to only run in the August primary if they receive the party's endorsement at its convention in Rochester.
