Hennepin County sheriff?

Last edited Mon Aug 13, 2018, 04:37 PM - Edit history (1)

Printed my sample ballot and there are three candidates for the nonpartisan sheriff. (non partisan? really?)

I suspect Stanek will win for name recognition alone. The other two are Joseph Banks and Dave Hutch. Anyone knows anything?

Interesting that there are four challenging Klobuchar.

This is why it is important to vote even if we did not have the interesting races for governor and AG and CD5. Many would not bother, figuring that, for example, Klobuchar would win hands down. This is what happened to Joe Crowley's supporters in NY.

Man would it be nice to kick that Trump-loving moron Stanek out of office.
