Fellow members of the DFL State Central Committee,
I am writing today to strongly endorse Jacob Grippen to be our next State Party Secretary. While I am thrilled that we have two great candidates running, I want to discuss my experience working with Jacob and why I think he's the right choice to be Secretary.
First, Jacob has been a relentlessly hard worker on behalf of DFL candidates across the state. During my years working for Tim Walz, I was able to see firsthand the hard work that Jacob is willing to do for our DFL candidates. Jacob has worked hard in Tim's district, from door knocking, organizing phone banks, and recruiting parade volunteers, to developing strategies for candidates at all levels. And Jacob is willing to take his work ethic, expertise, and passion for DFL politics across the state. From Duluth to Minneapolis to Winona, Jacob will put miles on his car to help DFLers.
Second, Jacob understands the issues facing folks in greater Minnesota. While I firmly believe that candidates can and must deliver an effective progressive message all throughout Minnesota, I know firsthand that we need to be especially smart and thorough in our work and messaging in greater Minnesota. Our statewide candidates, and our candidates in these areas, depend on it.
Finally, Jacob is a passionate and organized progressive. When it comes to the duties of Secretary, I know Jacob has the passion and organizational skills to take on complex tasks and support party units as needed across the state. He can do the hard work of connecting party units to each other and helping us all elect and re-elect DFL candidates in 2012.
I look forward to seeing you all on Saturday and encourage you to support Jacob Grippen for Secretary.
