The Editorial Board makes its picks in Tuesday's election.

November 4, 2019 at 11:51PM

Last week, the Star Tribune Editorial Board offered endorsements in Tuesday's election for St. Paul City Council and school board, while also making a recommendation on the city's trash collection referendum. The candidate endorsements, which can be found at startribune.com/opinion, were based on responses to a questionnaire as well as additional reporting, including attending or viewing video of candidate forums. The Editorial Board operates separately from the Star Tribune newsroom.
