Okay, I think I got the bitterness out this morning and I'm going to do something productive. Like quit this site, move this over to bluesky and just use social media less in general. It might happen in fits and starts but this place truly ain't it.

Robin Wonsley is the most fascinating Minneapolitan there is. Hell yes to a Muni Grocery Store, Muni Liquor store study. Let's see some data on 'er.
Minneapolis City Council PHS Committee voting today to request a report on municipal grocery stores: mapping food deserts, data on food insecurity, overview of municipally-owned retail including liquor and grocery stores, co-ops and non-profits. lims.minneapolismn.gov/File/…

Well. I guess I got the job for five years instead of four. Your next mayor will only serve a term of three years. Now every time you want to talk about city candidates you’ll have to shout over a presidential.
In St. Paul, voters rejected a property tax increase to fund a new childcare subsidy program. Voters approved moving city elections to even years.

Something I learned ... MN Sec of State updates results only every 10 minutes. No matter how many times you hit refresh, that doesn't change. And this year, it is on the 0:08, 0:18 0:28 sequence.

Newsroom technology has really stagnated in the past decade. We used to have holograms and comically large iPads

A lot of my friends are headed out to knock in SD45 today for Ann. Know that you tread upon the cursed ground that I sprung forth from and I cannot return to aide you.

I don’t have a lot of rules for the boys, but “Stay off the damn table.” Is one of them.

My father says every Election Day: “If you don’t vote, you can’t b*tch.” and if you’re on this website (myself included) all you do is whine so you had better go vote.

There’s a point here that I hadn’t considered. Question 2 just neglected school board. So the least turnout-ie races were just left to founder in the wilderness. Vote No yall.
Hey St Paul peeps, scroll to see Ellen Brown's letter urging voters to Vote No on Question 2 to move city elections to presidential years. Holding RCV elections in even years has not been permissible without statutory rules for how these elections would be conducted. The RCV Local Options bill would provide these standards, but the measure hasn't yet passed. So for now, @FairVoteMN is urging voters to vote no on the question. startribune.com/readers-writ…
