Dan Dittmann was a little late because he had to bike from work, but he was there alright. The article’s photo caption describes him as the Grassroots candidate, but actually he is the Green Party candidate for Lt. Governor.

I sat next to MPR’s Madeleine Baran, author of the article, in the front row. I also took some pictures, a little blurrier, at the public link below:

Dan talked about a moratorium on foreclosures, and transit passes for homeless that are at least as affordable as what he gets through work. He received loud applause when he said he opposed taxpayer funding for Twins and Vikings stadiums.
