and if you didn't toss the old one when you got the new one, it would be easy to grab the expired one and send it in or a copy by mistake. I sometimes forgot to throw away my expired one (I might still have one even though I'm retired now). She was always current as far as the state was concerned; her license had never lapsed. It's a non-issue.

she has a better background to be the county's chief prosecutor, though Moriarty would be OK and I won't be upset if she wins. But I'm liking Omar less and less these days; I'll be voting for her only because she's the Democrat (fortunately it's a safe seat).

I think Martha will just be more of the same and we won't be able to tell Freeman is gone. I hope Mary will bring a different perspective and ideas to the office. Mary seems to be more interested doing a better job of integrating county services and finding better ways to intervene with at risk kids before they're in trouble. And, from my perspective, it doesn't hurt that the current "powers that be" aren't fond of her.

But, at least we'll have a Democrat in that office no matter who wins.

after losing the primary.

I seem to be in the minority here, but I voted for Moriarty, in the primary and the general.

That said, I don't think this is a big deal.

The two candidates with the most votes move on from the primary to the general and that would be Moriarty and Dimick.

There were 7 candidates running in the primary, Moriarty got 36% of the vote, Dimick received 18%, (Ryan Winkler was next with 16%)

I'm supporting Moriarty but I fear Dimick will win - I think she's the candidate most Republicans will prefer in the general & too many of the Democrats who didn't support Mary in the primary will go with her.

They are pretty adamant about it too. They really don’t like Moriarty. I ignore it.

That's a plus in my book.

There are a couple of houses in my general area of South Minneapolis who have her sign, but also have signs for Jensen, Crockett, and Davis (who is the R running against Omar).
