This news release just popped into my inbox. The DFL Party may have to work extra hard to hold this seat. Here's some of the release:
STATE REP. CONNIE BERNARDY ANNOUNCES SHE WILL NOT SEEK RE-ELECTION
State Representative Connie Bernardy, Fridley, announced today that she will not seek re-election to the Minnesota House of Representatives in District 51B. Bernardy said she is stepping down after three terms to pursue other professional opportunities and to spend more time with her family.
"This has been an extremely difficult decision," Bernardy said. "I have loved serving in the Legislature and representing the people of District 51B in St. Paul. I have been so honored to have been given this opportunity."
