As a University of Minnesota Golden Gopher fan, one of my favorite places to visit is the GopherHole Message Board Community. While there are very good conversations about football & basketball, the Off-Topic board has been known for some great political discussion.
A positive of talking politics on a sports board is that you get a wide range of opinions, but most of us agree on one thing. Our fandom for the Golden Gophers.
On Monday, one of the Hole's resident conservatives, bga1, posted the link to the WSJ editorial. That has sparked a discussion which has reached a second page of posts. One of the good guys, UpnorthGo4 posted, then for some reason removed a letter wrote by one of the members of the Canvassing Board, Judge Edward Cleary (a Ventura appointee).
Fortunately, I was able to find a copy of the letter on Braublog, a MinnPost blog written by my friend, David Brauer. Cleary is straight-forward in the letter, and defends the Board and its chair SOS Mark Ritchie very well.
Update 7:44 CST - Found letter on GopherHole
And here is the thread.
