We've had over 800 views of our "open source" draft list of
candidates. We'll have a copy at our E-Democracy table tomorrow for
you to help us complete.
We will soon release the list for "open source" use by any print
publication, web site, etc. that wants to use it. If anything is
left blank now, it will end up blank in many places.
Many campaigns are lacking in their postal address, campaign manager,
and online contact details. By appointing an "online contact" (it
can be the candidate or campaign manager) future requests for a
candidate profile or perhaps answers to a "citizens' top ten
questions list" will be able to connect with someone who will make
sure it gets completed and avoid embarrassing your candidate.
Edits still welcome over night:

Also, if you find this forum and valuable community service, no
matter what your political affiliations, let at least one other
person know about it this weekend. Send them to:
http://e-democracy.org/mpls
During election cycles the rhetoric heats up and more new members are
attracted to the forum than at any other time. When it comes to
choosing your words, think about what your grandmother and your
grandchildren might think. Your public words will last a long long
time online. By focusing on substance with civility and passion, they
will stand the test of time.
