I checked the Emmer campaign website, events scheduled. Nothing I could find booked, at Lookers.

I was curious, after City pages reported more Emmer alcohol-related clan and paid campaign staff news, this link, source of this opening screenshot:



After seeing that as the latest on Tom Emmer III, I wondered about Tom Emmer, Jr., and whether Emmer III was scouting the venue for a possible campaign event; but I saw no Lookers engagement on the online calendar, here. Perhaps he might consider Newt, for booking into a Lookers fundraising situation. Make it something like a Hob-Nob with Newt during your lap dance kind of event. Unless Wright County GOP stronghold feelings do not actually fit that kind of juxtaposition.

Ramsey council candidate Harry Niska's spouse, Jennifer Niska, is an Emmer staffer, as is young Tripp:

Jennifer Niska, Office Director
Jennifer brings to the campaign experience in non-profit management and fundraising for organizations like the North American Baptist Conference, the University of Chicago and an Evangelical Free Church. Jennifer is managing the office, scheduling and overseeing volunteer recruitment.

Somehow, I do not see North American Baptist Conference, University of Chicago, or Evangelical Free Church as too compatible with the boozing and nude dance club dimension shown within the Emmer clan, so that it looks as if the campaign suffers a multiple personality disorder - either that or it is attempting to be all things to all people.

This close to election day I would not expect Ms. Niska to be quitting, but I wonder if she's at all having second thoughts. I guess it's like the military, if you sign on, you sign on for the duration and you do not pick all the cohorts taken on board. Like a hockey team where you are not the coach. Yet it is not too late for the "head coach" of the Emmer team to fire Tripp, if not done already. That's the very least sort of step you look for and expect.

Does any reader know, is Tripp Emmer still taking payment from out of contributed Emmer campaign funds?
