Cristy,
Perhaps I missed it but I don't recall you posting any post convention
observations about how wrong you were about the DFL Party and our
endorsement process with regard to this election. Toni Carter won the
endorsement in in rather quick decision.
I'd like to encourage all DFL list members and DFL wannabe's to
participate in the St. Paul DFL endorsment process which begins with your
precinct caucus meetings this Tuesday, March 1st, at &PM at a location
near you.
And remember to vote for Toni Carter for Ramsey County Commissioner in the
Special Election on March 15th.
