Ha. Ha. Ha.
There may not be an Ek - or any other Republican - on the ballot come next week:
UPDATE: I just heard on NPR that Kay Ek's name will not be allowed on the ballot. Welcome to the Legislature, Rep. Haws!Early in the afternoon, the office of Attorney General Mike Hatch gave an opinion to Kiffmeyer that no replacement candidate could be put on the ballot. Kiffmeyer's office was studying the opinion but did not make an immediate comment.
It's too bad for St. Cloud. Elections should always give voters a choice. It's bad for democracy anytime there is a spot on the ballot with only one name listed.

I agree. What else can you say? Sue Ek royally screwed this election up for the Republican Party.
