Saturday coverage

Well, the Trib finally got around to mentioning our billboard in a roundup of what’s happening with the Jaros/Bakk bill.

I couldn’t complain about the conclusion:

“Members of Let Duluth Vote already are working to influence the governor. On Thursday they paid for a billboard that urges Duluthians to call the governor and remind him of the stance he took on the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center.

‘He told us we had to vote on this little dinky $33 million sales tax for the DECC, but now he’s saying we don’t have to vote on the biggest school construction project in the state,’ said Harry Welty, a spokesman for the group. ‘If he means what he says, the governor is little more than a hypocrite.'”
