“On behalf of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, our candidates, elected officials, party leaders, and activists throughout the great state of Minnesota, I am honored today to submit the names of the terrific slate of candidates that will be on Minnesota’s presidential ballot to the Secretary of State.
“It has been 28 years since Minensota last conducted a presidential primary, and with this filing, we have an unprecedented and historic number of candidates who have qualified to represent our party on the presidential primary ballot. Minnesota voters have the opportunity to choose between 15 highly qualified candidates for the Democratic nomination, any one of whom would make a better president than Donald Trump.
