This is not even close to being accurate. Norm began working in the Minnesota AG's office in the 70's. He was elected mayor of St. Paul as a DFLer in 1992, and switched parties before running for re-election in 1996 as a Republican. During his re-election bid, opponent Sandy Pappas correctly predicted (despite vehement denials by Coleman) that Coleman would run for governor. Coleman, however, turned out to be correct in saying that he would serve out his entire term since he lost in 1998 to Jesse Ventura. On March 17 @ 2:39 AM, ronnie wrote:

The Minneapolis Star/Tribune had a little bit of detail on the renegotiated terms of his mortgages. That is probably the best place to start. Then check Ramsey County property tax records. good luck Colman moved to MN and to the republican party at roughly the same time.

When the news broke about his refinancing in January, there was simply a statement without details - Does public documentation exist and where might one find it?
