Viewpiont: Interest, teamwork should be weighed for Cottage Grove council picks
It is human nature to think that if someone does not agree with us that they are not listening, but we are actually collecting the facts, yours included, in order to make sound decisions and hopefully satisfy most of the people.By Dave Thiede , October 31, 2012

House District 54A candidate viewpoint: Dan Schoen
You have my commitment that I will work in unison with local, state and federal partners toward solving problems so we can stop squeezing the families and small businesses that keep our Minnesota communities thriving.By Dan Schoen , October 28, 2012
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.By Ron Lischeid , October 28, 2012
House District 54A candidate viewpoint: Derrick Lehrke
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.By Derrick Lehrke , October 28, 2012
District 54B candidate viewpoint: Joanna Bayers
Minnesota needs someone who is willing to listen, stand up and break the barrier of partisan politics and that is why I want to be your next state representative for District 54B.By Joanna Bayers , October 28, 2012
District 54B candidate viewpoint: Denny McNamara
While we have turned Minnesota’s economy around and made tremendous progress on many other legislative issues over the past two years, we can and will do better. With your help, we can make our community and our state a better place to live, work and play. I respectfully ask for your vote on Nov. 6.By Denny McNamara , October 28, 2012

Candidate Viewpoint: Cottage Grove City Council candidate Michael Fouts
Residents are disappointed in the current City Council for a variety of reasons, as evidenced by an unprecedented number of first-time candidates running in this election. Each of us made the decision to seek office for different reasons, but all of us felt that we were not being heard by those who are supposed to be representing us.By Michael Fouts , October 18, 2012
Candidate Viewpoint: Cottage Grove City Council candidate Jen Peterson
During my term, despite the recession, Cottage Grove is doing very well. We continued to provide quality public services and found smart ways to work with neighboring communities to help save more public dollars. We also made improvements to our beautiful parks and trails. We put people back on the job building our much-needed new City Hall and public safety facility while the costs were low.By Jen Peterson , October 18, 2012

Candidate Viewpoint: Cottage Grove mayor candidate Chad Magle
We need to remember that the only money our city government gets must first be taken from the citizens at some point and time. Spending citizens’ money seems to come easy for our current mayor and council majority.By Chad Magle , October 17, 2012
