On Minneapolis/Saint Paul ABC affiliate KSTP, Steven Schier, the Dorothy H. and Edward C. Congdon Professor of Political Science, answered audience questions via Skype about the looming shutdown of the state of Minnesota government. He says the potential for a short-term shutdown "is pretty high." Those governmental services deemed "essential" by the court systems would remain up and running, says Schier. A web extra of his appearance is available.
