Republican and DFL party caucuses will be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 3.
Hubbard County Republicans and DFL are basic political organizing units (BPOUs), offering local residents a chance to put their hand on the steering wheel of state and national government.
During election years, both parties’ caucuses are an opportunity for citizens to discuss candidates and elect delegates to their party’s county convention and candidate endorsing conventions. Some of these delegates, in turn, will be elected to represent the county at their parties’ congressional district and state conventions.
The Hubbard County DFL caucuses will be spread out between four locations, based on voting precinct:
Laporte School (315 Main St. W.) for Hart Lake, Steamboat River (both precincts), Lakeport (both precincts), Lake George and Hendrickson townships and the city of Laporte.Nevis School (210 Pleasant St.) for Crow Wing Lake, Mantrap, Nevis, White Oak, Thorpe and Badoura townships and the city of Akeley (both precincts).Helga Town Hall (25895 County 9, Bemidji) for Farden, Fern, Lake Hattie, Schoolcraft, Lake Alice, Guthrie, Helga and Rockwood townships.Park Rapids Area High School (401 Huntsinger Ave.) for Clover, Clay, Todd (both precincts), Arago, Henrietta, Hubbard, Lake Emma and Straight River townships and the city of Park Rapids (both precincts).

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
