It’s no secret that it would make us feel mighty good to once again be declared “official newspaper” in the county; it’s no secret either, that we’ve got our work cut out for us, if we’re going to bring the vote we received in the primary up and past that of our opponent, come fall. If it’s noble to try, then we’ll be noble! We’ll try! Thanks again you who voted for us Tuesday!

Why We Chose It
We take this votes mostly for granted these days … the only other periodical typically on the ballot besides the Minot Daily News is the Kenmare News. But it’s an impactful vote for a publication on the business side of the ledger. Being the “official newspaper” means the place where official notices must be published, and that’s a revenue source that matters now more than ever in keeping newspapers afloat. But the writing is on the wall, the tide is ebbing, if the local news business is going to stay viable, it’s going to need to chart a course with even this once reliable revenue source diminishing.
