Despite having no announced candidates for statewide office eight weeks from their state convention, North Dakota Democratic-NPL Party officials say they remain confident a strong ticket will emerge in the next few weeks.
Kylie Oversen, chairwoman of the North Dakota Democratic-NPL Party, said the party expects to fill its slate and have a strong state convention March 31 through April 2 at the Bismarck Event Center.
