Getting to the Bottom of the Ballot

You may ask yourself...Who wants to be on the Board of Estimate and Taxation? -- our Candidate Fair will give you a chance to meet some of the people seeking your vote. Come enjoy a pressure-free evening of chatting with candidates and other voters like you. This fair won't include any debates or hyped-up rhetoric--just a chance to talk face-to-face with candidates. If nothing else, come to enjoy some ice cream or a root beer float.

Our Election Guides focus on explaining the scope and duties of many lesser known offices...
You may ask yourself What does the Board of Estimate and Taxation do? -- our guide will help to answer such questions. Our 2004 guide is available in PDF format here. Our 2005 guide was completed in cooperation with the League of Women Voters, the Minnesota Council of Non-Profits, and the Minneapolis Public Libraries. It was published in the Southwest Journal, but you can request a hard copy from us. Simply contact Scott Marshall by e-mail to request a copy.

We want to be sure that you have a chance to know more than just the titles of the offices, because you have to vote for someone to do the job...so once you have read our election guide, you'll know more about what to ask when you meet the candidates at our candidate fairs...
