Has quite a wit,too. I would have liked to see Nan run for Governor, but Dayton really needs her.

Where is that PR Governor that Trump loved so much?
Are we going to have to have massive protests here to clean house?

(1,408 posts)I live about 20 miles north of Dayton so we've been watching it almost since it happened.
I was awake when the news broke on TV at about 1:30 or 2.
All officials involved have really kept us informed and even the local news has done a credible of reporting without sensationalizing it.
Nan Whaley has been great for Dayton. She's smart without being snooty.
I also used to run and work in the Oregon District back on the late '70's & early '80's.
It has really changed for the better in the last 25_30yrs.
It's really a nice place for a night out. There is almost any venue you want. Be it a restaurant or bar or music.
