RNC in St. Paul (MN): no 4 AM bar close

The city of St. Paul rejected the idea of leaving bars open to 4 AM during the upcoming Republican National Convention, and I think Councilmember Thune, of the downtown area, said it best:

"Remember whose ward this is going to end up in -- it's mine. And I've got 8,000 people living downtown who don't want a bunch of puking Republican lobbyists on the streets at 4 in the morning," Council Member Dave Thune said, according to the Pioneer Press.
