[Mpls] Getting to the Bottom of the Ballot workshop: Money & Politics

[Michelle Martin]

Getting to the Bottom of the Ballot presents:

“Putting a Price on Politics”
A multi-party, non-partisan workshop on how money influences local politics

Tuesday, March 16th, 7—9 p.m.
Southwest High School (47th & Chowen Ave. S.)

How does money influence local and state politics?  Who enforces the
campaign finance laws?  How do candidates finance political campaigns?  Can
individuals make a difference with campaign contributions or really gain
"access" by giving?  How do local corporations distribute their political
resources?

Join us as we examine the relationship between money and politics with a
panel of area leaders and practitioners on March 16th.

“Putting a Price on Politics” Panelists:
·State Senator John Marty
·Jeanne Olson, Executive Director, Minnesota Campaign Finance and Public
Disclosure Board
·David Schultz, Professor, Hamline University, Graduate School of Public
Administration and Management
