According to the Lake City Graphic of July 28, both candidates for Wabasha County Sheriff, incumbent Rodney Bartsh and his challenger, Sheriff’s Deputy Jason Bade, said during a July 25 debate that they would not enforce mask mandates.
A statewide mask mandate was in effect from July 22, 2020, until May 14, 2021, and presumably Sheriff Bartsh felt it was in his authority to waive enforcement.
