Doug Seaton On Michelle MacDonald Endorsement
Chair of the Minnesota Republican Party Judicial Committee Doug Seaton announces the committee's findings that it should endorse a Minnesota Supreme Court candidate and that Michelle MacDonald should the the candidate the party endorses.
"We've interviewed the one candidate for a position and the committee has determined as follows by the normal procedure and vote in the committee. And after the interview of the candidate we determined to recommend to the convention that you do endorse for the judicial seat occupied by judge Lillehaug. David Lillehaug. a Dayton appointee. And that you endorse the one candidate to who seeks to oppose justice Lillehaug. That candidate is Michelle MacDonald. She is, I believe in the venue. And I believe that once this report has been received by the, by the convention, Mr. Chair that it would be in order, at least at a timely point to proceed to two issues for the convention. One whether the body, whether a motion, it would be in order to hear a motion to endorse and then secondarily if that prevails to hear a motion to endorse Michelle MacDonald. So those two motions would be in order if not now at some point in the procedure here. That is my report. Thank you very much for your patience."
