The League of Women Voters in St. Paul has scheduled campaign forums for candidates running in next month’s election for mayor, school board and the Ward 1 city council seat.
While St. Paul’s mayor race — with Mayor Chris Coleman seeking a third term — has been considerably less intense than in Minneapolis where the race is wide open, the St. Paul school board and council race should be interesting with ranked-choice voting.
