I saw this on the back doors of a Nestles trailer: A picture of a Baby Ruth candy bar broken open exposing its ingredients. The caption read: If you can smell the fresh roasted peanuts and chewy caramel you are following too close.

During Minnesota's recent caucus, the DFL (Democratic Farm Labor) party pushed for an Instant Runoff Voting referendum to be included on November's ballot. If approved by the voters this would presumably effect municipal, county and state elections. Are any other states considering instant...
