Prop 336 Results

Well, we have a way to pick a president, as Prop 336 passed last night, with your Minnesota representatives voting "yes," "abstain," and "abstain." There seems to be consensus within the Minnesota delegation that we need to change the way delegates are apportioned long-term so that there is not such a heavy bias in favor of registration states. We will continue to work on this, and hopefully we've displayed some leadership by compromising for the good of the party in the short-term, and committing to addressing the issues in good faith for the long-term.

Prop 332 Vote

I would support a yes votes.  It seems like the apportionment formula is very complicated, thus could be confusing and cause a whole host of problems.  However, I know the committee worked on it for over 2 years and thus a lot of thought went into it.  

If some of our delegates have talked with people in the past, 1 no vote could possibly be an accurate proportional representation of the MN Green Party.  However, the delegates would have to believe a full 33% of MN Greens hold this opinion.  I don't know myself.

Thank you for all your work and for taking the time to consider this proposal and reach our Members for their opinions,
