Adopted February 22, 2024

 

​The Minnesota Young DFL shall make an effort, in good faith, to reach out to candidates and campaigns in races where the organization has expressed interest in or plans to screen for endorsement.

It is the expectation that candidates and campaigns will also make an effort, in good faith, to contact a  Minnesota Young DFL officer if they are aware that the organization has expressed interest or is planning to screen for endorsement and they have not received any official communication from the organization.

The Minnesota Young DFL reserves the right to not consider or screen any candidate or campaign that has not made an effort to contact the Minnesota Young DFL at least five (5) days prior to any planned screening for endorsement. 
 

Additionally, The Minnesota Young DFL reserves the right to not consider or screen any candidate who has not responded to official communications relating to logistics for endorsement screenings from the organization in a timely manner as defined by the President or the Political Director. In instances where no date for a response was assigned, candidates or campaigns must respond within seven (7) days. 

The Minnesota Young DFL also reserves the right to not consider any candidate that has not publicly announced their candidacy or who has not filed candidate/candidate committee paperwork with the Minnesota Secretary of State or their local county elections office.
