Balanced partisan election. Even though mayoral elections are supposedly
nonpartisan, most everybody knows the political affiliation of the candidates
and the strong tendency of voters to be assisted by party labels when voting.
Nevertheless, based on the fund raising amounts, it appears that both Democratic
and Republican labeled or leaning candidates have a rough parity of funds. This
balance will make the up-coming elections more fair and balanced without one
candidate having to fear that partisan votes are being split among like-minded
candidates as in this case Buhler and Christensen, and Wilson and Becker get to
slog it out between themselves respectively and may the best candidate
representing the respective parties win the primary election.

I thought that the news would report how Rocky told Jenny Wilson that she should
stay home and be a mom instead of be mayor. If I were Keith Christensen, I
would distance myself from Rocky--he might have a better chance of winning the
dem nomination.
