SD41 met on Saturday March 6th for its 2010 convention. It was a full house with 300 delegates seated. Endorsements included:
Geoff Michel - endorsed for SD41 to vie for reelection to the the MN Senate
Keith Downey - endorsed for SD41A to vie for reelection to the MN House
Pat Mazorol - endorsed to run for the SD41B seat currently held by a Democrat
Delegates and alternates were also elected to represent SD41 at the 3rd Congressional and State Conventions.
We had many wonderful speakers join us some of including both Tom Emmer and Marty Seifert, who are running for the State GOP endorsement in the Governor's race. Some other guests included Erik Paulsen, our Congressional representative for the 3rd District, Rich Stanek, our current Hennepin County Sherriff and Pat Anderson who is running for State Auditor.
Chair of the MN GOP State Party, Tony Sutton and Deputy Chair Michael Brodkorb also spoke and fired up the crowd about the upcoming election cycle. Republicans are on the march everywhere and are looking to share their message of individual liberty, smaller government and the protection of family values. Whether a delegate to one of the upcoming conventions, a precinct officer or an SD41 resident, we need your help at the local and state level to get out our message for our candidates, help with fundraising and ultimately be a Republican voter. Are you in? |
