Emmer’s Former Campaign Manager Arrested
JORDAN, Minn. - The Wright County Sheriff's office arrested a former campaign manager to Tom Emmer over the weekend. Six term representative Mark Buesgens of Jordan accused of driving drunk Saturday night.
Police say the 49-year-old's blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit.
Buesgens is seeking reelection to a seat representing some of Scott County. He stopped working for the Emmer campaign on September 12.
Emmer's campaign released a statement, saying, "Mark made a serious mistake in judgment. I am thankful that he did not hurt others or himself. Driving under the influence is not acceptable. Mark is a friend. He is a good man. We will help him and his family in any way possible. They are in my thoughts and prayers."

I remember a few months back that Emmer wanted to reduce penalties for Drunk Driving.
I think his opponent was running a campaign ad about it too.
