There was a SF Chamber Committee private forum this past week and I spoke with someone who was in attendance. They basically said, ‘Theresa crushed it!” They also said Jensen knew very little about city government. Shocker!
My endorsements haven’t really changed;
• Vote NO on both Charter Amendments
• Stehly for At-Large. Like her or not, she has the best interest of the citizens at heart. She is also a champion of transparency.
• Julian Beaudion for NW district. Neitzert has been a turncoat.
• Cynthia Mickelson for school board. I know this may shock some people, but I think she has tried to open the school district up to more transparency. I don’t always agree with her, but I think she really works hard and tries to do the right thing.
• Crystal Johnson for Minnehaha State’s Attorney.
I also encourage everyone to absentee vote either by mail (complicated and they are way behind on applications) or in person at the election center, directly east of the Minnehaha County Administration building. I voted a week ago, brought my own pen, and I was the only one there. As I was leaving I soaked my hands in hand sanitizer by the door.
