RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 3055
A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR REPEAL OF PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY
WHEREAS, the statute establishing the Presidential
Primary was initially adopted without legislative hearings; and
WHEREAS, the Legislature has not provided reimbursement
of local government costs for conducting the primary; and
WHEREAS, the Presidential Primary is designed to provide
voters an opportunity to express preferences for the nomination
of presidential candidates by. major national
and political parties;
WHEREAS, the statute establishing the Presidential
Primary (M.S. 207A) requires voters to declare which political
party ballot they will receive prior to casting their vote; and
WHEREAS, such political party voter identification will
become public information and a permanent record on the voter
registration file; and
WHEREAS, such records will be available for political
campaign activities, including canvassing and fund-raising; and
WHEREAS, the purpose and effect of the balloting
conducted during the Presidential Primary are unrelated to the
actual election of candidates to public office; and
WHEREAS, the outcome of the Presidential Primary
balloting will not determine the election of candidates to public
office in Minnesota or at the national level.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Orono, Minnesota, call on the State Legislature to
repeal the statute establishing the Presidential Primary to
eliminate requirements for local government to fund the costs of
the primary since such balloting is essentially a political party
activity which should not be financed with tax revenues.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Orono,
Minnesota at a regular meeting held December 9, 1991.
