Last Call for Election Letters to the Editor!

Patch staff will stop inputting letters to the editors on Oct. 28. After that, you can upload them as an announcement.

Patch readers have taken an active part in making their voice heard during this year’s election. They’ve written numerous letters to the editor, starting from the time candidates filed to run for office. 

In order to ensure all sides have an adequate chance to respond before the Nov. 6 Election Day, Patch will not accept letters to the editor after Sunday, Oct. 28.

This does not mean you have to stop sharing your thoughts here on Patch. After Oct. 28, readers can post their opinions about candidates on Patch’s announcement page. Just select “Government” from the categories menu. Be sure to include your real name and hometown at the end of your letter. Letters without this information will be deleted.

Announcements are published in Patch’s e-mail newsletter and could be posted on the home page and social media.

Those who want to continue sharing their thoughts after Election Day may also want to join Patch’s team of Local Voices columnists. Click here to sign up for your own blog.

And of course we will continue to welcome readers who just want to chime in the comments section at the bottom of articles.

So get those letters to the editor in. We can’t wait to hear from you!

I had the same problem. I did see a person with an "Obama for President" bumper stickerRead More and a pro- "gay" marriage sticker drive off with some plants. Another Democrat stealing property.

Way to keep comments inline with the story. Trolls belong under bridges not on forums like this.

I am sorry to hear this happened to you. Theft from garages is kind of popular. They usually don'tRead More break in though. Glad you filed a police report and I hope you recover your property.

Sorry to say that you didn't have good information before moving to Minneapolis. Minneapolis isRead More plagued by crime, caused by the liberal mentality that prevents police from doing their jobs. Minneapolis and Hennepin County needs a strong sheriff, such as Sheriff Joe Arpaio from Arizona, to clean house and really crack down on the criminals that have destroyed vast swaths of Minneapolis.

Comments from Southwest Minneapolis Patch's Facebook page: Laura Bischoff: "This all feelsRead More pretty hate-filled to me. An unfortunate outcome." Andrea Nicole Markley: "Yes, I thought the principal had done a pretty bang-up job of re-vamping Washburn's image."
