Betsy Hodges for City Council

Betsy was endorsed by acclamation on Saturday at the Ward 13 DFL Convention! Thank you to all the delegates who took time on Saturday to attend the convention and support Betsy. An extra thank you to all of our volunteers who helped at the convention and in the run-up to it.
 
As Betsy said at the convention, not having an opponent is not the same thing as having support. Saturday showed us that Betsy has a strong base of support here in Ward 13, and we will build on that base throughout this campaign.
 
Our campaign will not only be an opportunity to re-elect a great Council Member, it’s an opportunity to build on the enthusiasm and motivation from last year’s victories as we work to get more people involved in the politics that directly affect their local community.
 
Be sure to stay tuned for future updates from the campaign and be a part of that process by signing up on our volunteer page. Thank you again Ward 13 DFL!

I would love to be able to tell you what will happen in the next four years.
But the economic downturn and the state's budget deficit makes that
impossible. What I can tell you is that first, Minneapolis has its fiscal
house in order. We have created and adhered to budget policies and
principles that have prepared us to handle the worst case scenario in the
best way possible. Second, if re-elected I will continue to bring our values
to City Hall, including fiscal responsibility, a good future for our kids,
and a vibrant city for everyone. We will get through this together.
