Getting reports of bad election ideas in Signal groups. Defend democracy by shooting these down. No, you can’t show up at a precinct & be a challenger/observer. Those must be appointed by a party, nonpartisan campaign or ballot initiative. Letter must be accepted by officials. No letter, out you go.

Donation advice for the close Minnesota State Senate races. You don’t need to donate to the ones who already hit their spending cap! The ones below are the ones that could really use your help. If you’re going to, do it soon so they can put the money to use!

Noteworthy racism: DOJ/DHS said they arrested people from Liberia, Ghana, and Brazili for illegally voting. But they didn't mention the white South African, Lithuanian, Canadian, German, or Bosnian who they also arrested and charged.

Don't we know about the fraud because he charged people? The AG doesn't manage social service programs. His job is to respond if fraud occurs. I find this whole campaign re: fraud a sad indicator of public literacy on how government works and who does what.

if you’re the white woman who was picking up a bat in downtown minneapolis on hennepin ave between washington & 3rd on 9/15 at noon, the minnesota department of health would like to talk to you because that shit was RABID! i would also like to talk to you because girl, wtf

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH

RABID BAT FOUND ON SIDEWALK
On Tuesday, September 15 at about 12pm, a bat was found on the sidewalk on Hennepin Ave between N. Washington Ave and N 3°St.
The bat died and was sent for rabies testing. This bat tested positive for
rabies.
A woman was seen crouching by the bat and putting it into a bag. She was described as a 25-to-30-year-old white woman, about 5'5", with curly brown hair and a curly-haired golden retriever-like dog. If this was you, please call 911 and ask to be connected to Animal Care & Control.
Bites from bats are tiny, may be painless, and may not leave a mark. An person who had physical contact or touched this bat should talk with health care provider this weekend for assessment. During the week, Minnesota Department of Health can also provide rabies assessments at 651-201-5414.
If vou did not touch or have any contact with the bat, you have no risk of rabies and do not need shots.
