Another easy one. On the ballot:

Garrison McMurtrey (DFL-endorsed, incumbent)
Greg Copeland

Garrison McMurtrey was elected in a special election in 2025. He hasn’t updated his website yet to talk about accomplishments rather than goals, but he hasn’t had a lot of time. But he seems like a perfectly nice normal Democrat.

Greg Copeland is a Republican and a perennial candidate who ran for the wrong County Board seat in 2022, City Council in 2019, St. Paul School Board in 2017, and 2016, and 2015, and 2013. Two minutes of browsing through his blog found a post about the “Plandemic” and a post where he misgenders Rep. Leigh Finke.

Absolutely vote for Garrison McMurtrey!

This seems like a good year to fundraise for a trans nonprofit, so I’m fundraising this year for TIGERRS. I don’t have a Patreon, and a fundraiser lets me see in a tangible way that people value my work, which is really helpful as a motivator. (This project is a lot of work.) I raised $7,230 during primary season so I’ve raised the goal.

I also have a new book out! Obstetrix is about an obstetrician who gets kidnapped by a cult because they want someone on hand to deliver their babies; it’s a story about enduring, surviving, and not giving up. You can buy it anywhere fine books are sold, and I’ve been doing my best to keep Uncle Hugo’s, Moon Palace, and Dreamhaven Books in signed copies.
