Minnesota 5th District, DFL-endorsed Congressional candidate Keith Ellison came to campus today to speak over lunch in coordination with the Augsburg College Democrats (we contacted him and asked him to come speak). I asked my professor if I could leave class early to hear Ellison speak and I am very glad I did so -- he was incredibly articulate, intelligent, and seemed to be an all-around great guy. If I wasn't swayed before (which I was, ha), his visit really convinced me. I'm really glad that we're afforded opportunities such as this at Augsburg, and am more excited than ever for the impending election. Its get out the vote time!
