We’ll get ‘em next time…

Congrats to Bernie Scheffler for his good showing in the elections. Even though he wasn’t able to unseat Wendy, he did remarkably well, and I think the 30% higher voter turnout in District 9 was largely due to his efforts. With a fraction of the funds and time that Wendy had, Bernie did a fantastic job. The next campaign begins now, so look forward to seeing more of Bernie in the future.

Strong jeers, however, to the Star-Telegram for their useless election coverage. Just prior to the election, their feature article didn’t even mention the opponents in most of the races, and only a paltry sentence or two in the few races where they DID mention them. That is, frankly, pathetic, and the Star-Telegram should be ashamed of its (lack of) proper coverage.
