AAA In The News - MPR Coverage Of The Anoka Transit Tax Vote
Posted by Andy on March 25th, 2008
As noted, Bob Collins of MPR was at the Anoka County Government Center today. Here’s his story which includes yours truly. The selling of a tax increase I was quoted in it and there is also a link to an audio interview with me here. But the creme de la creme is the one he did with Commissioner Rhonda Sivarajah. You can listen to that one here. Make ure you read the whole article.

I heard the MPR account, that included Mike Opat of Hennepin County saying he had not decided yet. Given his record, I would ordinarily dismiss that as somewhere between a self-serving fantasy and an outright lie. But I wonder.
Maybe, just maybe the voters of Hennepin County have been letting him know just how much they appreciated his vote to have Carl Pohlad fish money out of our pockets. Maybe he remembers that before that, a complete unknown got 40 percent of the vote last election.
Maybe he knows that yanking referendum ballots out of our hands twice in one term might cost him his cushy job.
