Is the list extremely south Minneapolis oriented?
Certainly. I probably know more about the inner
machinations of the Central Neighborhood Improvement
Association than anyone who has never lived south or
west of the Mississippi. But that's a reflection of
the make-up of the list. If CM Johnson wants that to
change, why doesn't she post? Why doesn't she
encourage some of the more net-conscious of her
constituents to join the list?
She reminds me of the critics of the caucus system.
Same criticisms: too small a group, too powerful in
skewing the system. But the critics never propose a
solution/improvement or try to use their own numbers
to correct the imbalance. They just want it to go away
and to hell with the loss of a participatory
citizenry. Sad.
