I just wanted to correct some erroneous information that was reported in the
Star Tribune this morning. "The mayor's report listed $1,000 in donations
from Gerald VanAmerongen...." 

This is not correct. The reporter misread the report and added two
total-contributions-to-date columns. This is an important clarification,
because such a contribution would exceed the legal limit by $500 (as noted
in the story). Furthermore, if citizens were to misread the report in that
manner, they could think there were over a dozen campaign finance law
violations. 

I just wanted to prevent further misunderstanding.
