General election
Collins enters
After the Progressive coalition's preferred candidate William Lee did not win the Republican primary, the Progressive state committee organized to either endorse Republican Eberhart for governor or nominate a candidate of their own. Those in favor of nominating their own candidate won out and attempted to endorse Hugh T. Halbert and J. F. Jacobson (both of whom refused the honor) before settling on Paul V. Collins, a newspaper editor from Minneapolis.[1] Collins claimed to be among the earliest Roosevelt supporters in the state, having been a potential Republican convention elector for Roosevelt and later serving as a Minnesota delegate to the Progressive Party's national convention. Progressives endorsed the Republican ticket for most other races.
Collins entry was highly controversial. Within days, multiple members of the Progressive Party's state committee resigned in protest[2] and Governor Eberhart issued a statement calling the party's decision to endorse a candidate the "most high-handed form of dictatorship ever exercised in the state."[3] Some losers of Republican primary vowed to stand by the primary results.
