DFL PRECINCT CAUCUSES
Tuesday, February 3rd
Registration: 6:30 PM | Caucus: 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
FIND YOUR PRECINCT CAUCUS
Employers are required by Minnesota law to provide time off to employees to attend precinct caucuses if they’ve been provided with written notice 10 days or more in advance.
After attending your precinct caucus and becoming a delegate, local DFLers in your area will organize a convention at some point between Saturday, February 13th and Sunday, April 12th to vote to endorse candidates for state representative, state senator, and to choose delegates to move onto the next levels of conventions, the congressional & state conventions. Delegates selected to the 4th Congressional District DFL Convention (taking place at some point between Saturday, April 25th and Sunday, May 10th) will have the chance to vote to give Betty the Minnesota DFL Party’s endorsement. Delegates elected to the congressional district convention will also be delegates to the state convention at the end of May.
CAN’T ATTEND YOUR PRECINCT CAUCUS?
