First term St. Paul City Council member Chris Tolbert says he won't be throwing his hat in the ring for the 64B race."I like what I'm doing on the council," said Tolbert in an interview. He's two years into his first term on the council, facing a re-election in 2015.
He's also signed on as co-chair for the campaign of Matt Freeman, who ran his contentious bid for the DFL endorsement in Ward 3 in 2011 against John Mannillo.
"There's a lot to do here," Tobert said. "I want to work on transportation, and the redevelopment of the Ford Plant."
He's also, ahem, an assistant Hennepin County attorney, and well, with the boss's son weighing a run in the district, that might make an endorsement battle a little, well, awkward. Not to mention that Freeman's significant other, Nicole Wittig-Geske, is Tolbert's legislative aide.
