The Better Ballot Campaign realizes that all the talk about IRV can get a little dry. The people have spoken, and we are listening. So we're tapping the kegs, whipping up some desserts and throwing a big ol' "LET'S WIN THE DFL ENDORSEMENT" party!! Daniel and Lara Duddingston welcome you into their home at 443 Holly Ave for city wide party on April 12 from 7:00 to 9:00! Come hear IRV supporters opine about better participation AND better refreshments. Discuss better democracy AND better cookie recipes with DFL leaders. (list of candidate/celebrity attendees will be updated here.) Come along for the fun and help us persuade St. Paul DFL delegates to vote to endorse IRV!! This party immediately follows the April 12, Commissioner Rafael Ortega party at Mancini's Steak House (starting at 5:00pm.) Make a DFL night of it! Start on 531 W 7th and work your way up the hill to 443 Holly Ave. Volunteering
