The people of Yankton are capable of solving their own problems without interference. We are resourceful men and women or we wouldn’t be here in the first place. We have a good sense of when we should do things on our own, and when we need to come together to do what only communities can accomplish. No one needs to cut our meat or interpret our information for us. We can do these things ourselves. We talk, we discuss, we even argue. We treat one another with respect for the person and the opinion. When there has been enough talking, we take a vote and abide by the result. Then we go back to work, to church, and to the ball fields. When it’s all over we are all still neighbors. The opponents of the opt-out have hired Paul Dorr as their consultant.

Properly used, consultants can provide helpful ideas. But there are other sorts of consultants. Some of them run dirty campaigns and spread misinformation. They attempt to smear reputations and intimidate opponents with threats of lawsuits. They come to town, quickly dump a load of their particular brand of manure, take their money and leave. The community gets to clean up after them. We don’t believe that Yankton likes dirty and name-calling campaigns, so we are not running one. We have been here from the beginning of this campaign, and we will be here when it is over, living and working alongside the rest of the citizens of this fine city.

Once that is neutralized in the mind of the voter, it takes little additional effort for them to vote in the interests of their own pocket book.” The tactics the consultant has used in other communities are described by the Minnesota Association of School Administrators as the following: • • • • • Skewing figures and creating mistrust in the school administration and board Using last minute advertising distorting information as factual Portraying kids as being from the school district in radio ads who were not even from the district Using mass mailings to discredit our local leaders and create mistrust Leaving a trail of divided communities with no apparent remorse.
