=== Assistant: Do you mean Mike Liddell — or possibly Mike Lindell — when you ask “Mike Liddell”? ===
Do you mean Mike Liddell — or possibly Mike Lindell — when you ask “Mike Liddell”? There is no major public figure named “Mike Liddell” currently running for governor.

If you meant Mike Lindell: yes — Mike Lindell has recently filed paperwork signaling a bid for governor of Minnesota.

If you meant someone else, can you double-check the spelling or give me more context — I can check for that person.

Yes — Mike Lindell has filed paperwork to run for governor of Minnesota. The Washington Post<ref>{{cite web|title=The Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/12/03/lindell-mypillow-governor-minnesota//|publisher=The Washington Post|date=2025-12-03|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>

===== ✅ What we know so far =====
* Lindell recently registered a campaign committee, “Mike Lindell for Governor,” with Minnesota’s Campaign Finance Board — a standard step toward formally running. Spokesman-Review<ref>{{cite web|title=Spokesman-Review|url=https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2025/dec/03/mypillow-ceo-mike-lindell-files-paperwork-to-run-f/|publisher=spokesman.com|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>
* He says he’s not yet 100% committed, but plans to make a final decision at a news conference on December 11, 2025. The Washington Post<ref>{{cite web|title=The Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/12/03/lindell-mypillow-governor-minnesota//|publisher=The Washington Post|date=2025-12-03|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>
* If he runs, he will join a growing Republican primary field vying to challenge current Governor Tim Walz (D). Spokesman-Review<ref>{{cite web|title=Spokesman-Review|url=https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2025/dec/03/mypillow-ceo-mike-lindell-files-paperwork-to-run-f/|publisher=spokesman.com|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>

===== ⚠️ What isn’t settled yet =====
* Lindell hasn’t made a final, firm public announcement — he’s still signaling he may decline. The Washington Post<ref>{{cite web|title=The Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/12/03/lindell-mypillow-governor-minnesota//|publisher=The Washington Post|date=2025-12-03|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>
* Because of that uncertainty, his run is still “potential,” not guaranteed. ABC17NEWS<ref>{{cite web|title=ABC17NEWS|url=https://abc17news.com/politics/national-politics/cnn-us-politics/2025/12/03/pro-trump-conspiracy-theorist-mike-lindell-files-to-run-for-minnesota-governor-in-2026/|publisher=abc17news.com|date=2025-12-03|access-date=2025-12-06}}</ref>
