Celebrate the 75th Anniversary of Minnesotas Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party. Concern about the power the Republican Party exerted on elected offices throughout the state and an approaching national election provided incentive for the Farmer-Labor Party and the Democratic Party to merge in 1944. The new party carried the state for Roosevelt that year and elected Hubert Humphrey Mayor of Minneapolis in 1945. Speakers will discuss the political tenor and events leading up to the merger, the forces at work, the key figures involved, and its relationship to Hennepin County. Come for an interesting conversation with artifacts from the time and lots of historic photographs.
