Indivisible West Metro's Voting Guide

Since the very beginning of Indivisible West Metro, we have engaged in electoral education, provided candidate forums, and voting guides. Our voting guides are especially important when there are races with one potentially disastrous candidate and a larger number of good candidates. If the good candidates split the vote, the disastrous candidate can win. That threat is real in the Wayzata School District school board race, where a candidate (Laura Conway) endorsed by the Minnesota Parents Alliance, a MAGA adjacent organization, is running as a Trojan Horse. We propose that in this race, people vote for the incumbents and one other individuals who is widely liked and endorsed (see our list below). MPA also has endorsed candidates in the Anoka-Hennepin, Lakeville, Fridley and other Minnesota school districts.

Here are our suggested voting guides for all the school board and municipal elections in our area.
