such a fucking mess.

In Minnesota, they endorsed FOUR different candidates for governor ahead of the state Dem convention, essentially as a way to say they were not endorsing one of the choices. Except delegates can't choose "anyone not named Tim Walz," so it was essentially a pointless endorsement.

Now with the primary coming up, the official state chapter has endorsed one candidate, while some of their more active regional chapters endorsed someone else entirely (who would not only cut into the vote share of the much less well-known person the state chapter endorsed, but also used to work in the fucking Bush White House.)

And they accidentally endorsed an ICE agent for an open Congressional seat in the northeastern part of the state.

Just a complete shitshow. They're also getting a reputation for issuing endorsements before they've even sent out their candidate surveys, which seems completely backwards.

I'm genuinely disappointed by what a ragtag operation they've been, because a national progressive organization that is able to direct people's efforts/talking points would be an increidbly useful thing.
