The St. Paul City Council appears to have found out about this at the same time as everyone else. archive.is/XZzS4

Here's Molly Coleman's statement (thread): bsky.app/profile/moll...

In the last 48 hours, Saint Paulites have learned about multiple allegations that Mayor Kaohly Her engaged in sexual harassment and misconduct toward city employees. These allegations are serious, and must be fully and thoroughly investigated.

Several of the news stories have mentioned that back in January, another woman tried unsuccessfully to get a restraining order against Mayor Her. Here's a more detailed article about that from January. archive.is/WMgrx

The part of that story that's especially striking in light of the current allegations:

If I added up the numbers correctly, 66,769 ballots were cast in the mayoral race last fall. 20% of that is 13,354 names. To recall Mayor Her, someone would need to collect that many names (along with addresses, they need to be registered voters in St. Paul).

So, that's basically what I have found SO FAR. This story broke late on Tuesday night, and it is now Thursday, and Lou Raguse made it VERY clear in that 15 minute segment linked upthread that there are lots of additional details yet to come out, stuff he knows but was told off the record.

The details Lou Raguse knows are all, I think, about the current complaint/investigation. The stuff from the complaint filed by SPPD Chief Axel Henry. I don't think I'm going way out on a limb by predicting that there's more out there.

For example I wonder if there's a connection to this story (which someone just DM'd me): bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

Anyway. I feel like some of the more damning details (unwanted touching, commenting on another woman's breasts in the locker room) are being lost in the hilarity over "weinering." Her's behavior was wildly inappropriate with multiple people in multiple situations.

just like other harassers - if they felt this free to do it once, they almost certainly had practice to get it down "right".

And on the petition be sure people write their FULL address including city state zip and sign, write their name.

There should be something on it that makes it clear that the minimum number of signatures is 2053 people who ranked Her first. People who did not should probably not sign the petition? I’m not quite sure how that part works.

No it’s all voters.

Ah! Really wish some of that would use more plain language… it doesn’t describe the mechanism or who does any validating or, if there’s a transparency issue, who helps with transparency…

Ответ для Iruka
Pat Thompson

They validate after, as with the current “right to repair” petition that has been in the news. It’s the same process.

You can sign the recall petition if you are a registered voter who lives in Saint Paul, it does not matter who you voted for or ranked first. I mean, how would they even know? Your ballot is private!

This is why we need smart people like you people to break down these ordinances! I read them and I think I understand them and I clearly don’t.

“The public judges its government by the way its public officials and employees conduct themselves in the posts to which they are elected or appointed. City officials and employees hold positions of public trust under the scrutiny of public opinion, and their actions must be above suspicion.”

Thanks for putting this together. This was not a single off-color joke told badly at a single staff meeting. At the very least, she was putting herself in these settings. And then saying/doing these things.

Are Saura and Molly the only council members to say anything at this point?
