ST. PAUL, Minn. - Matt Entenza conceded he can't win Minnesota's DFL primary for governor Tuesday night as Margaret Anderson Kelliher and Mark Dayton battle for the nomination.

With 30 percent of precincts reporting, Kelliher had a 15,000-vote lead over Dayton.

Entenza spent $5 million of his own money on the race.

“This clearly shows us that money doesn’t buy elections,” University of Minnesota political science Prof. Kathryn Pearson said.
