Someone alert the Republican Party of Minnesota: A campaign sign for St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman has sprouted in the grass outside Minneapolis’ South High School.

Coleman’s campaign activities beyond St. Paul’s borders have drawn a complaint from the state GOP, who allege he’s running for governor but reporting travel and other expenses as part of his mayoral re-election campaign.

Coleman’s campaign signs don’t say what he’s running for. It’s also unclear what business his sign has in the grass outside Minneapolis South. The school is only a matter of blocks from the site of an Aug. 28 governor-candidate forum that Coleman attended.
