61B - Does Farheen Hakeem Really Have Becky Lourey's Endorsement?
Well, this is confusing....

Does Farheen Hakeem have former Senator Becky Lourey's endorsement?...



...or does Amy Brockman?...

1. I'd say the one who has a quote directly from Becky Lourey

Since the other one just "lists" a name along with other names.

When Farheen talked to Becky she was still planning on running for the DFL nomination. Whether she misled Lourey or changed her mind later it's disingenuous to continue to tout Lourey's potential support pre-DFL nomination with the overt support Lourey has thrown Amy's way now.

3. No, but she did apparently consider running for the DFL endorsement

It was at this time that she talked with Lourey.

4. Lourey Speech at Eyes Wide Open
I have posted a story and photos about the Eyes Wide Open event in St Paul this past Wed. Becky Lourey made an eloquent speech, and I have posted the transcript within the story.

She is a wonderful person.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but I don't have enough posts to merit my own independent post.

6. thanks
Becky presented such a beautiful speech and the corporate TV channel that I watched didn't show any of it.

I hope others can share and be inspired by her strength, intellect and fortitude.
