Commentary: Local option sales tax - just what is this?
Red Wing residents are being asked to determine whether a local option sales tax is a good idea. On Nov. 6, the general election ballot will include a question asking voters to decide whether an additional half-cent sales tax should be collected. A greater than 50 percent “yes” vote of the voters who vote would approve the referendum question.

Letter: Vote to keep our tourism
As a business owner in Red Wing for the past 14 years I get many people from the surrounding areas shopping in our stores. The biggest comment I hear is: "We come to shop in Red Wing because you do not have a city sales tax." We hear this comment over and over and a city sales tax would reduce this tourism spending in Red Wing.

I found a letter to the R-E (Oct 13) supporting Seifert titled “Seifert is a man of integrity, will protect our resources” to be a classic example of doublespeak.
