The Minneapolis mayoral election seems pretty simple to me.
You get to rank three candidates.
Rank the three who showed up for Minneapolis today.
Do not rank the one already in charge of the complicit police department.

If Indie Bookshop Day showed me anything it was that the death of Uptown is just a failure of imagination for those unable or unwilling to see a live-able future.
Market correctly to the people who live here and near here. The city doesn't need the burbs but the burbs DO need the city.
