"He's strong and he's also informed," Pawlenty said on CNN early. "I think he has the total package and I think he's going to bring forward the strongest voice and the strongest image."
Bush and Pawlenty had served concurrently as governors in the mid-2000s.
The lifelong northeast Minneapolis resident led a one-vote majority through the landmark 2023 session.
