Letter - Examine facts; understand implications

Minnesota is recognized nationally for the integrity of its election system. In two recent statewide recounts, the system was closely scrutinized by lawyers and other observers from both major parties.

To the editor:

Minnesota is recognized nationally for the integrity of its election system. In two recent statewide recounts, the system was closely scrutinized by lawyers and other observers from both major parties. They found no problems; they did find that Minnesota’s election system is remarkably sound and transparent.

There will be an informational forum on the Voter ID issue at the Alexandria Technical and Community College auditorium at 5 p.m. on November 1. The event is sponsored by the League of Women voters and includes experts from AARP, Citizens for Voter Integrity and a representative from the Douglas County auditor’s office, who can answer your questions.

Examine the facts, understand the implications and make an informed decision. I urge you to vote No on Voter ID on November 6.
