FARGO (KFGO) – The North Dakota Democratic-NPL Party has canceled this year’s state convention due to concerns over the transmission of COVID-19.
The convention had been scheduled for March 19-22 in Minot.
Staff and Dem-NPL leaders are working with supporters, volunteers, vendors, and other involved parties to determine next steps.
“In the interests of the community health and the safety of our supporters and delegates, we believe it is in the best interest to cancel the convening of our state convention” Democratic-NPL Chair Kylie Oversen said.
“We are working on alternate plans to ensure that we meet all legal deadlines for our statewide candidates, national delegates, and other required business.”
