It is incredibly curious that the second highest vote getter in the primary is not good enough for the Star Tribune -- and for the flimsiest reason of age equals lack of experience.

And, the Star Tribune goes beyond not endorsing her. It gives advice on her career as well:

"At age 24, she has impressive political savvy and experience. With a little more life and work experience under her belt, she should definitely continue to pursue elected office."

A word of advice to the Star Tribune editorial page staff - you are neither Dear Abby nor can you tell Minneapolis voters that they were wrong in giving Peggy Flanagan the second highest number of votes cast.
