High/Low: In 1993, Pawlenty and a handful of fellow House Republicans voted to add sexual preference (gays, lesbians, transgender and others) to the Minnesota Human Rights Act, an action that many regarded at the time as politically gutsy. Republican Gov. Arne Carlson signed the legislation into law, but Pawlenty later said he regretted his vote and subsequently had to answer to Republican delegates at the 2002 state convention.
