In the St. Paul Issues Forum, the big topic in the forum, of late, has been the local Sheriff’s race. Its been a very long campaign and the Sheriff’s race has been an ongoing issue in the forum since last December, when the local police union voted to endorse Fletcher and the president of the union posted an explanation of the vote in the Issues Forum.
While the discussion has not always been pretty, I think that many participants might argue that they have gotten more information about the Sheriff’s race from our forum than from just about any other single source. Of course, others would argue that much of the information in the forum about the race is just political mud and of little value.
