Proposes moving to Minnesota (9)

I believe the answer is:

nominates

'proposes' is the definition.
(nominating is a kind of proposing)

'moving to minnesota' is the wordplay.
'moving' indicates an anagram.
'minnesota' anagrammed gives 'NOMINATES'.

(Other definitions for nominates that I've seen before include "Puts name forward in Minnesota" , "Suggests" , "Proposes" , "Propose for election" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
