Tarryl Clark continues to roll up the union endorsements. The latest is from the Service Employees International Union’s state council. About the only politically influential union that hasn’t yet backed Clark in her quest to unseat U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann is Education Minnesota.
“Tarryl has worked hard in the senate representing working people in her district, and now finally the 6th Congressional District has an opportunity to have a congresswoman who works for the district and not for cable TV,” said Carol Nieters, Secretary Treasurer of SEIU’s state council, in a statement announcing the endorsement. “I volunteered for Tarryl in her senate race. When I went door to door in the district for Tarryl, one thing was clear: voters really like her. She’s proven she can win in a Republican leaning district.”
Clark is vying with Maureen Reed for the DFL endorsement.

Well I’ll repost the comment I posted earlier today:
Tarryl Clark has done great work for the DFL. However, what that means is that she has voted for many major tax increases and has a very partisan voting record. It’s going to be impossible for her to run and win in the 6th District with her voting record.
If we want to unseat Michele Bachmann the candidate to back is Dr. Maureen Reed. Reed just had an editorial in the SCTimes and recently updated her website.

Reed has broad and extensive experience in Health Care, Business, Education, Environmental Issues and the Arts. She’s is able to tackle health care reform as a Doctor, Health Care Administrator, Medical Director, and Small and Medium Business CEO who had to purchase health insurance for all her employees. Reed is a middle of the road, Minnesota DFLer with the experience to be an effective legislator and a great candidate.
