This is in response to Matt's posting. I apologized personally to Mr. McFarlane via email and in person, regarding the invitation to appear on "Conversations with Al McFarlane". Unfortunately there was a computer problem within our system, which affected my receiving emails. This problem has since been taken care of and my campaign is again receiving and responding to its correspondence in a timely fashion. Mr. McFarlane was very gracious and invited me to be on a broadcast of his show.
I have taken responsibility for the computer glitch on our end and apologized to the appropriate parties involved. The Tifft Campaign is about people, our homes and our neighborhoods and most importantly our Eighth Ward. My vision is to make the Eighth Ward a safe place for families of all descriptions to live, work and play. To be a voice to those who are not heard at City Hall and to listen to the people that I represent and be an advocate for them, to make our ward a place where people will want to be.

Sent: Friday, March 11, 2005 12:12 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Mpls] Re: Tifft Invited to KFAI Debate I am writing in response to Andy Ansell's March 1 post regarding KFAI-FM's alleged failure to invite 8th ward City Council candidate Dennis Tifft to participate in its February 28th debate. I have obtained an e-mail from "Conversations with Al McFarlane" staff member Lauretta Dawolo which indicates that Dennis Tifft was invited to participate in the debate. The e-mail was sent on February 25 to [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and other candidates. This evidence refutes both Ansell's post and the letter to KFAI-FM cited in the post. I encourage campaigns citywide to check all possible e-mail accounts. This will not only ensure that they respond to potential voters but also that false claims, like those in Ansell's post, are not leveled against anyone.
