At your precinct caucus, you and your neighbors will elect delegates and alternates to represent your precinct at the DFL Senate District Endorsing Convention. The meeting convener will ask the room who would like to become a delegate and people will raise their hands to sign up. If there are more people interested than the allotted spots in your precinct, you will have to sub caucus, moving into an issue or candidate group you support. Next, your sub caucus will elect delegates/alternates.  

At the Senate District Convention, you, as a delegate, will be able to vote for Commissioner Xiong to earn the DFL endorsement. Alternates get to vote if the delegate from that same precinct cannot attend. After the endorsement for the local state races are done, you have another chance to become elected to the State Convention, where delegates will endorse candidates for statewide offices.

The DFL endorsement is a stamp of approval from the DFL Party allowing our campaign to access and pull additional resources and support from the DFL. And, it will help us reach more voters and win in November!
