Notes on this record

How the lists were read, and what could not be.

City Hall is 1201 7th Street South (the former Tech High School, per the Mayor's page and the Local Election Filings page); an earlier lookup at 400 2nd St S was discarded. Candidates: Minnesota SOS MyBallotMN sample-ballot data (robots.txt 404) for the range containing City Hall (prodAddressRangeId 323894: precinct ST CLOUD W1 P5, Stearns County, CD 6, SD 14, HD 14A, election 8334 '11/03/2026 STATE GENERAL ELECTION'), retrieved 2026-11-01. Ward 2, 3 and 4 council races read from other St. Cloud precincts' sample ballots (ranges 107217, 1987, 799). Write-ins skipped. 'DEMOCRATIC-FARMER-LABOR' stored as party 'Democratic-Farmer-Labor', partyShort 'Democratic'. Governor/Lt Governor tickets one row per person. Campaign websites as printed on the ballot data.
Municipal candidates cross-checked against the City Clerk's 'Local Election Filings' page (filing closed June 2, 2026; 'The candidate listing below is final'): Ward 1 Dave Masters, Dreyton Nichols, Charlie Hobbs; Ward 2 Karen A. Larson; Ward 3 Hudda Ibrahim and others. Nichols is not on the general-election ballot (primary, August 11). The filings page prints home addresses, phones and emails: none copied. MyBallotMN labels every ward race 'Special Election for Council Member'; why (e.g. a term or cycle change) is not stated on the pages read — recorded as printed.
Not recorded as rows (brief scope): Secretary of State, State Auditor, Attorney General, Stearns County offices, Soil & Water supervisors, ISD 742 School Board (elect 3), Supreme Court / Court of Appeals / 7th District judges, Constitutional Amendment 1; HD-14B (Dorholt DFL v Ek R; sitting member Dan Wolgamott, DFL, per the House list — not on the 2026 ballot for 14B).
Sitting members: Emmer from house.gov/representatives; Putnam (SD-14) from the Minnesota Senate member feed; Perryman (HD-14A) from house.mn.gov/members/list; official legislative emails kept, office addresses/phones not copied. Senators Klobuchar and Smith, Governor Walz, and the statewide candidate rows (Senate and Governor tickets) carried from the us-duluth record and re-pointed to the St. Cloud City Hall ballot (same statewide contests, re-read on that ballot 2026-11-01). Mayor from the Mayor's Office page; seven council members (four wards, three at-large; 'Each serves a four-year term') from the City Council page with official @ci.stcloud.mn.us emails; phone numbers not copied.
Districts: Census geocoder (robots 404) at City Hall: MN-6, SD-14, HD-14A. MyBallotMN sampling of 18 St. Cloud precincts in ZIPs 56301/56303/56304 (Stearns, Benton and Sherburne parts): all CD 6 and SD 14; HD 14A (Wards 1 and 4 precincts sampled) and HD 14B (Wards 2 and 3, and part of Ward 1). Coarse sample.
Nothing was blocked. No home addresses, phones or personal emails recorded. standsFor null for everyone (no candidate statements read).
