Greeting's List!
I would like to say Congrats to Brian Melendez. I know your heart and your
thoughts are with the DFL, and the inclusion of people from other cultures
into the DFL party. You are a hard worker and deserving of the party's top
position. WTG! My hat is off to you.

By the way, I was at the Democratic Convention and I, at no time, saw an

From time to time, I analyze posting stats for the list. As we move toward
the city election, I thought it would be a good time to look again.

or Johnson-Lee.
Michelle references 'the
Since I only sent my plans to two other people on this forum, I will tell
all. I am in the middle of purchasing a house in the Jordan neighborhood, which
will give me a vote by election time. However, I may just stay where I am,
until after elections where I have a great council person.
