One of the most important aspects of a political campaign is getting in touch with the voters. By the time I’m finished I’ll have been to nearly half the doors of the voters in the Duluth School District. The status quo majority of the School Board ought to talk to the folks in Western Duluth. They would get an earful.
I limped on my sore foot for four hours today after church. I skipped dining with my daughter’s family to hit more doors. Along Piedmont Avenue I got a surprise when a young father seemed to think my campaign was not his concern. He told me his child hopped on the school bus which took him to school in Wrenshall. Wrenshall?
Twenty years ago a few children from far western Fon du Lac started following a friend who transferred to Wrenshall in preference to Stowe Elementary. Until the Red Plan the loss was confined to that far western neighborhood which is midway between Denfeld and Wrenshall. But Piedmont Avenue is almost the center of town just two miles from Messabi Avenue.
We don’t need school board members who wear blinders and who are too busy to knock doors to find out what’s going on. I did see a lot of Dana Krivogorsky’s lawnsigns our west. I put up a few of them myself.
Wrenshall!!!!!
