Please come and participate in the Minneapolis-5^th District’s second endorsing convention. Your voice is needed!

Four candidates are seeking Green endorsement: Doug Mann and Troy Benjegerdes for Mayor of Minneapolis; Terry White for City Council Ward 8, and Addy Free for Minneapolis Park Board District 4.

The written questionnaires they submitted and transcripts of their interviews with the screening committee are posted on the Minneapolis Green Party (5^th District) Facebook page. Please take some time to read them before the meeting. The candidates will also be present to speak and answer questions.

Time permitting, 5^th District strategic planning committees will give brief reports after the endorsing process.

Please RSVP on the GPMN website or on the Minneapolis Green Party Facebook page.
