Illegal Campaigning? GOPer Vicki Ernst, Chanhassen

Last Thursday, I went to a GOP Campaign Event TeaBagger "Stop The Election Fraud" deal at the Eden Prairie Community Center (imagine that - TeaBaggers hate Government so much that they meet at a taxpayer-paid facility).  And I saw a bunch o' angry white folk there, bound and determined to make sure elections were run fair 'n square.

So I've been driving around today, checking to see if any of those SouthWest TeaBaggers were sitting just over 100 feet from the polling places in Eden Prairie and Chanhassen - you know, so they can stop the hordes evil liberal/leftist/socialist/French-Fry eating election-stealing ACORNers from stealing the election from those hard working TeaBaggers.  And, of course, so far I've seen none of them keeping democracy (with a small "d") safe in America.

I did see the following:

So I paced from the front door of Precinct 1 in Chanhassen, the Fire Station on 7610 Laredo Blvd to the front corner of the driver's side on the truck:  14 yards.

And the ol' TwoPutter knows 14 yards when he paces it....

And who Might Vicki Ernst be?  Well, she's an incumbent Chanhassen Council Member, and she was elected as an At-Large Delegate in the GOP's 2nd District in 2008.

Incumbent, big ol' truck with a big ol' sign well within the 100 foot boundary - of COURSE she's a GOPer.

We'll see if Carver County does anything about it...

...but, if those angry white folk from Carver County and Eden Prairie aren't guarding THEIR election polling places, where are they?

Hmmm....

...stay tuned!

Apparently there's a different standard in red Chaska county... (0.00 / 0)
Back in 2004 in Minneapolis, my campaign sign laden pickup truck was ordered towed by an election judge despite the fact it was over 100 feet from the polling place.

SO What? (0.00 / 0)
Tommy, seriously, who cares? I am starting to think if you spent half as much time getting out our message to folks instead of worrying about a truck with a sign on it and what people wear to the polls, we might actually have a chance in EP. Let's make an argument that people can agree with.

"...might have chance"? (0.00 / 0)
We knocked out a corrupt GOPer ('scuse the redunancy) in Mayor Phil Young, and knocked off the two GOPer endorsed candidates - 1 to replace the disgraced Phil Young and the other to replace Jon Duckstad's seat on the Council.

You can think what you want; I'd suggest you actually think first.

And any time you think you might want to match my time and effort, send me an email and I'll let you.

No doubt you have passion, but you might have more success in half the time spent if you were to focus on what motivates people. I'm not sure calling people corrupt and liars is a proactive way to give us a much needed boost at this point. I wasn't aware that our party was squeaky clean, but feel free to correct me if I am wrong. I could probably dig up some fairly recent news regarding the misfortunes of a few reps who may have had, let's say, questionable judgement? There will always be shennanigans, because it's government. I don't get to fired up about the per diem thing, I can see how a few might, but at the end of the day I am sure the city has wasted massive amounts of cash on some stupid art pieces tucked away in a park that aren't visible until you walk 2 miles in. Do you understand?
