The new SW Journal article on the two groups listed the PIP endorsements for the districts as Dziedzic, Olson, Vreeland, Hansen, Kummer and Fine.

I received it as well, though I specifically asked to be taken off their email distribution list. As for the city DFL, it would definitely be unethical for the party organization or one of its officers to provide the list to an outside organization without authorization. I suppose that Ms Anderson could have been provided a copy of the list, as a city-wide endorsed candidate, and given the list to PIP, but I would hope not. > > Of course, one could simply go to the archives of this list to copy down the emails of those who post regularly. A good question is: are those who only lurk on this list getting these emails? > > Oh, and by the way, I AM SHOCKED...SHOCKED TO SEE WHO THEY ENDORSED CITY-WIDE! Is there anyone who wants to bet against the fact that they will endorse Dziedzic, Olson, Hansen, Kummer and Fine in the district seats (and not endorse in District 3)? C'mon, I feel like freakin' Nostradamus here!
