On This Date in Minnesota History: April 13


April 13, 1907 – Minnesota Governor Harold E. Stassen was born in West St. Paul, Minn., on this date, the fourth of five children. “Stassen was later best known for being a perennial candidate for the Republican Party nomination for President of the United States, seeking it 12 times between 1944 and 2000 (1944, 1948, 1952, 1964, 1968, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, and 2000), but never winning it or, after 1952, even coming close.”
