HISTORY OF THE DEMOCRATIC-FARMER-LABOR
PARTY
Minnesota's Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) was officially formed
on April 15, 1944, the result of a merger of the existing Democratic Party and
the Farmer-Labor Party. Although the two entities had competed vigorously
throughout their pasts, they had been brought into closer harmony through their
mutual support of New Deal programs, through Popular Front collaborations
during World War II, and through a realistic acceptance of the fact that they
were effectively splitting the state's liberal vote, and thereby aiding in the
election of Republican Party candidates for state and federal offices. The
merged party became the Minnesota arm of the national Democratic Party.
Leading the merger effort were Elmer Kelm, the head of the Minnesota
Democratic Party; Elmer Benson, effectively the head of the Farmer-Labor Party
by virtue of his leadership of its dominant left-wing faction; and rising star
Hubert H. Humphrey, who chaired the Fusion Committee that accomplished the
union and then went on to chair its first state convention. After considerable
infighting over the next few years, Humphrey successfully led the
anti-communist wing of the DFL into a position of party dominance, effectively
excluding the Popular Front faction from 1948 onward.
A strong showing in the 1948 general election encouraged party leaders
to start building a strong and stable state organization. Orville Freeman was
elected state committee chairman, and strove to create an effective precinct,
ward, and county organization for the young party. During this period the Young
Democratic-Farmer-Labor Clubs (YDFL) grew rapidly as well, becoming a proving
ground for many future party leaders. With a robust party structure in place
the DFL steadily increased its share of elected officials in state and federal
offices through the 1950s and 1960s. This growth declined during the latter
1960s when internecine conflict regarding the Rolvaag gubernatorial
administration and the War in Vietnam resulted in a decline in the party
organization's administrative and polling effectiveness. This trend was
reversed in the early 1970s as new leadership emerged and reclaimed much of the
lost political ground. The electoral success of the party has ebbed and flowed
since the late 1970s, in part due to the DFL's adoption of proportional voting
as part of the national Democratic Party reforms initiated in the early 1970s,
which fueled the emergence and power of single-issue splinter groups within the
party structure.
The State Central Committee (SCC) and the State Executive Committee
(EC) are the governing DFL bodies between party conventions. The SCC's 544
members (502 actual votes) are elected every two years at county unit
conventions. Party officers, which lead the SCC and EC, are elected every two
years at state conventions. Leaders of state senate and house DFL caucuses are
ex officio members of the EC. There are also central committees and executive
committees established at the county unit and congressional district
levels.
SCOPE AND CONTENTS OF THE COLLECTION
Files of the state chairman and the executive committee provide an
overview of the organization's operations and of the persons, organizations,
activities, issues, projects, and state and national party subdivisions with
which it interacted.
Other substantive series of records document the YDFL (youth
organization), the DFL Women's Federation, the Hennepin County (Minneapolis)
DFL organization, and senatorial campaigns of Hubert Humphrey and Walter
Mondale. Convention files document national, state, district, county, and
precinct Democratic conventions and caucuses, including lists of delegates,
reports, correspondence, platforms, and background materials.

Candidates:
This subseries contains information about DFL candidates'
campaigns. The DFL sporadically maintained files on their candidates and,
occasionally, on non-DFL candidates in races as local as library board on up to
the President of the United States. Generally, the files can contain campaign
literature, photographs, candidate profiles, campaign statements, candidates'
newsletters and press releases, correspondence, invitations, internal DFL
communications, and speeches. Some files contain only a brochure while others
provide a great deal of detail about the DFL's participation and promotion of
the campaign with correspondence about campaign finances, speaking engagements,
district rallies, etc. A general rule of thumb is that the higher profile or
more critical a candidacy was the more materials there will be on that
candidate. By and large, information on GOP candidates is in the Newspaper
Clippings and Subject Files series.
Campaign literature, photographs, and newspaper clippings, and
other publicly disseminated information is unrestricted. Correspondence,
personal invitations, internal DFL communications, and similar materials are
restricted for 25 years after creation date.

These files contain correspondence with and within the YDFL
regions, as well as flyers, local club newsletters, and other miscellany. The
YDFL regions are not the same as the Minnesota

used both the regions and districts to organize themselves. It is not clear at
what date the YDFL regions were established or for how long they were used.
