New districts and new candidates and none reveal party affiliation

As it stands my House rep is running again so having a flyer from someone for "State representative" I know is not a D. And I received an email from a volunteer for the Senate candidate who worked with my current rep (for four more months) asking if I will display a yard sign and I agree. Got the sign today and it does not identify the party, either.

At least her webpage has the big DFL on it

And I remember noticing in previous years that many signs in the suburbs do not identify the party. Even the colors are misleading. Two years ago the R who ran against Phillips had a solid blue sign..

Oh well, whatever works.

Figuring out the candidates for "non-partisan" offices (sheriff, county attorney, judges, city council...) is another big pain.
