A new phone survey has been running about building the Walmart at 85th and Minnesota. I haven’t heard the survey myself, but here is the gist;
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion on the proposed Walmart at 85th & Minnesota?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion about Mayor Huether?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion about councilor Greg Jamison?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion about the city council?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion about Bonita Schwan (SON organizer and council candidate)?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
• Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion about Dana Palmer (SON organizer)?(sic)
It was followed by a specific question.
I don’t know all the specifics of the follow-up questions, and I certainly don’t know who is conducting the survey (though I do have my guesses) but if anyone gets the survey and would like to help me fill in further blanks, that would be great.
What surprises me the most is the question about Dana Palmer (a private citizen). They used to pull this crap with Stehly. It is one thing to be running for office, it is entirely something else to be organizing a petition drive. Doesn’t matter if you agree or disagree with Palmer, if she is not running for office, and is working in her best interests as a private citizen, it should be hands off. Of course, that’s not how it rolls in this town, anybody who questions the kingdom’s court decisions shall be tarred and feathered, even though, we both know, it should be the other way around.
