Viewpoint: Asian carp on the Mississippi march

Like many of our native fish, Asian carp eat algae and other plankton, but because they are so big they eat a lot more of it. For this reason, they have the potential to quickly knock an aquatic food web out of balance.

Candidate Viewpoint: Newport City Council candidate Tom Ingemann

The business community is pleased with the current climate in this city as far as a business goes. There has been nothing but positive comments from citizens as far as what they think about their city. I know the residents of the city of Newport are very smart and know what is going on in their city, and are not hoodwinked by a lot of broken promises, nonexistent connections and glorified nonsense.

Candidate Viewpoint: Newport City Council candidate Dan Flood

When I tell most people that I am running for council, the most common reactions I get are statements of good luck, or the question, “Why would you put yourself through that?” Let me be very clear on this point. I am running because I believe that we can do better than our current council and Newport needs better.

Two years ago I became a member of the Newport City Council after seeing the need to improve the atmosphere and perception within the city.

House District 54A candidate viewpoint: Ron Lischeid

I can’t get elected this November unless all independent-minded voters support me. In a competitive three-candidate race, 40 percent of the vote can win the election. I have provided all voters an opportunity to vote their conscience and to select the most qualified candidate without regard to political party. I ask that you utilize that opportunity on Election Day.

As I have shown in my past experiences, I am uniquely qualified to not only work with members of both sides of the aisle, but to also stand up and vote no when a compromise cannot be reached. I will not be afraid to fight the same way for you in St. Paul. I have no IOUs to special interests, so I can truly be your voice.
