Ross Litman was on a late-season campaign swing across the Iron Range in 2002 when he bumped into Walter Mondale, who was delivering a stump speech of his own at the Iron Man monument in Chisholm.
Litman was a first-time candidate who had earlier received the former vice president s endorsement in his successful bid for St. Louis County sheriff. Mondale, meanwhile, was courting voters as a last-minute replacement for U.S. Sen. Paul Wellstone, who died in a plane crash just 12 days before the general election.
