Abstract

Translate

With Ronald Stinnett, Charles wrote the definitive work- Recount- on the contested Minnesota gubernatorial election of 1962. [...] 2008, this was the closest statewide election in Minnesota history, and after recounts and court challenges, Democrat Karl Rolvaag defeated incumbent Republican Elmer Andersen by 91 votes. According to the Urban & Regional Planning Economic Development Handbook, Minneapolis and St. Paul represent the only metropolitan area in the U.S. that has such a tax-base sharing policy.
