Stonewall DFL Endorsements
Yesterday afternoon, Stonewall DFL members met to endorse candidates prior to the 2006 caucuses. ("Stonewall DFL is a political organization that works for a safe and equitable Minnesota by electing GLBT and allied Democrats to office in Minnesota and in the DFL.") I missed the afternoon due to rehearsal, but these are the results:
Governor: Steve Kelley
Secretary of State: Christian Sande
US Senate: Amy Klobuchar
State Auditor: Reggie Edwards
House District 64A: Erin Murphy (Note that all five candidates--Ian Keith, Don Arnosti, Sara Dady, and Donna Swanson--were deemed "acceptable.")
More can be found here or here.
1 Comments:
These candidates have not yet been officially endorsed; instead the general membership of the caucus has made a recommendation for endorsement that will be ratified at the next Stonewall DFL (SDFL) board meeting. That said, they'll probably stick.
All candidates in the 64A race had a strong showing. Erin Murphy topped our list.
Please note that Susan Gaertner was endorsed for Ramsey County Attorney.
