State senator makes shirtless vote during Zoom meeting
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- A Minnesota state senator became a reluctant star on social media after he voted shirtless while lying in bed during what should have been a routine legislative commission meeting. In a video streamed on YouTube, Republican Sen. Calvin Bahr, of East Bethel, can briefly be seen voting -- with a School House Rock "I'm Just a Bill" character on the wall behind him -- during a Zoom call on Monday with the Legislative Audit Commission. After voting, Bahr quickly turned the camera off, leaving a black screen showing just his name. A GOP Senate spokeswoman said Bahr, a truck driver, worked until 4:45 a.m. and then went to bed before Monday's meeting.
