St. Anthony Park Festival, June 2006
What issues were most important to your neighbors?
ASK THE CANDIDATES WHERE THEY STAND
-
At the Neighbors for Peace table at June's Park Festival, we asked visitors:
Which of the following are the topics you most want to hear discussed by candidates for major national and state offices? Results will be tabulated and sent to all of Minnesota’s candidates for these offices.
Each person was given 3 stickers to place on pages representing these topics. They could put the stickers on 3 different issues, or all their stickers on one or two issues.
| WORLD AFFAIRS | US NATIONAL AFFAIRS |

The event attracted a lot of people, discussion, and interaction. The results were quite varied.
