Ember/DFL dispute not over

The issue involving Ember Reichgott Junge's use of DFL on billboards, e-mails, etc. isn't over. An evidentiary hearing will be held next week to hear the complaint. Here's a link to the administrative law judge's ruling saying they can proceed on the matter. The DFL Party says Minnesota law says Reichgott Junge shouldn't be using just the letters DFL on her billboards, website or e-mails because she isn't the endorsed candidate. The law says she can use "DFL affiliated," "member of DFL" etc. but can't use the letters "DFL." State Representative Keith Ellison has the party's endorsement.
