7. I don't always follow endorsements

and have been known to vote for he unendorsed candidate in the primary. I usually keep that quiet as I'm always on the Senate District Central Committee we're not supposed to obviously support unendorsed candidates.

I mentioned it this time because sometimes it does matter to people and I was a delegate at the the Hennepin County convention when Moriarty & DeWitt were endorsed. I had been backing Moriarty before the convention but didn't make up mind on the Sheriff's race until that day. I found DeWitt very impressive (the 2 guys who ran against her were not at the convention).

The county attorney's race will be interesting given that Dimick can't stand Moriarty, I'm not sure if the animus runs quite as strongly from Mary back to Martha, but we shall see.
