Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Paul Ryan spoke to a large crowd of supporters on Sunday in Minneapolis.

With just two days to go before the election, Ryan reached out to voters in the North Start State.

The VP candidate's rally at the Minneapolis airport was part of a move that was to take him through Ohio and Colorado.
