Senate District 59 DFL 2022 Virtual Convention
On Friday, March 4, 2022, the Senate District 59 DFL Executive Committee voted to move to a virtual convention.
On Saturday, April 9, 2022, the Convention was held virtually within a Zoom meeting as required by Minnesota DFL rules. Delegates and alternates received a post mailed Official Call postcard with their delegate status and their ballot number. Most votes for this convention were held by acclamation, but one ballot was needed for resolutions. This was the first all-virtual convention to endorse for all contests, elect party officers, and elect state delegates, with a walking subcaucus, all in one day virtually without the risk of covid. At least three delegates who participated were covid-positive and recovering well at home.
