Through a survey of hundreds of Minneapolis residents a year and a half
ago, GetBoB found that what Mr. Brandt is saying is true - that voters'
confidence in their choices wanes as they approach the bottom of the
ballot. "We" are confident the vote we cast for mayor is a relatively
well-informed one but we are less sure of our decision for, say,
library board.
So - let BoB help you overcome your uncertainty. Come one, come all
and bring your neighbors for goodness sake to GetBoB's general election
soiree:
This Wednesday, October 26 from 7-9pm at DelaSalle High School
GetBoB will provide sample questions for each office to get the
conversation started and just enough blood sugar in the form of root
beer floats to keep the dialogue alive. We also have a voter guide and
of course, THE CANDIDATES. Great chance to chat with candidates about
those things you think are important before you make your decisions
about who's going to chart the course of the city for years to come...
After all, there's no better endorsement than one based on your own
experience.

BRANDT:
I suspect that they may have more weight for the down-ballot contests
involving many candidates, such as the library, park and school
boards.
