DORFMAN IS IN, BUT WILL SHE ABIDE BY THE DFL ENDORSEMENT?
Dorfman's carefully worded statement saying she would "actively seek" is different than abiding by the endorsement.
According to the Associated Press, Ellison and Ostrow said they would not challenge the DFL endorsed candidate. It may be tough for the former chair of the Minnesota DFL to run against an endorsed candidate, but tomorrow Erlandson can answer that question himself when he announces his campaign.

"Hennepin County Commissioner Gail Dorfman today became the first woman to officially enter the race to represent the Fifth Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. She will actively seek the DFL endorsement on May 6th.
'I enter this race with gratitude to Congressman Sabo for serving us so well, with great respect for the institution of the House of Representatives, and with a passion to fight for a different kind of America - one that reflects the progressive values we share in Minnesota's Fifth Congressional District.'"
