And perhaps the most important decision to be made by Minnesota voters Tuesday is what party controls the state Legislature.

Letter: Romney, Ryan would bring real change
As a very important election approaches, we need to ask ourselves these questions. Where are we? How did we get here? Is our present course wise, responsible and sustainable? We need to look at this unselfishly, not as a special-interest group (seniors, labor, farmers, etc.). This has been a land of opportunity and still the best place on earth to live, and we need to preserve it for following generations.
