Doug Fulton has announced his candidacy to run for the open Minnesota Senate seat in Senate District 50.

A life-long Minnesotan, Fulton grew up in Grand Rapids, MN.  He has lived in Edina with his family for 26 years. He and his wife Cindy have four children.

Fulton is a commercial real estate consultant, providing strategy and advise to Minnesota businesses.  He is considered an expert negotiator and problem solver, working with businesses to reduce occupancy costs and maximize value in real estate decisions.   

In his election campaign, Fulton intends to focus on three main issues: the economy, public safety and education.  

He has seen first-hand the tremendous economic value that communities like Edina and Bloomington offer to business owners as well as families. However, he is concerned about the impediments the current administration has imposed on Minnesota businesses and families through misguided economic policies.  He has witnessed how rising crime has impacted both urban, and suburban communities.  He is committed to ensuring that his clients, friends and Community see the value in living, working, schooling and raising a family in MN. 

“I am excited to engage with the community about these important issues that so deeply impact our quality of life and our families,” Fulton said.  “It will be an honor and privilege to represent this great District and to work on solving the many issues we face today.”  

Doug Fulton will be seeking the Republican endorsement at a special convention to be held later in May.
