    Well, they are going to have to do everything perfectly. One screw up of any kind and for the next ten years every discussion of diversity or women in leadership positions is going to include a Republican saying, “Yeah, well just look at what they did to St. Paul.”

      They will say that while ignoring all the screw ups that councils made up entirely of men have made over the years.

        I guarantee, even if they are completely perfect, they’ll still get blamed for whatever fuck ups the Minneapolis city council does (for those who are unaware, Minneapolis and St. Paul are LITERALLY right next to each other)
