But I do want to specifically thank @davidformn40b.bsky.social for helping me. I was very scared and overwhelmed and he went out of his way to help. Not because I am his constituent, but because he recognized me as a fellow human being who needed support. These are the leaders we need.

I refuse to believe this is who we are. Because if this is how the party in inclusion treats people with disabilities, there's no point even trying.

I wish my brain didn't respond the way it does. But I have no control over that. I should not have to risk my wellbeing to be part of the democratic process. I no longer feel safe at DFL events

But: I am one person very unfamiliar with party politics. If anyone knows the best way to file a complaint so that it will actually be heard, please let me know

Tldr: I want to file a formal complaint to the @dfl.org regarding the strobes handed out by the @klobuchar.senate.gov campaign. I want an investigation into how this happened and details of how it will be prevented. I also want a public apology to those of us affected

To the delegate who bravely advocated for themself: I am so proud of you. And I am so sorry you were treated this way. It is unacceptable.

- when delegates complained about the strobes, including citing that they were prohibited, other delegates booed and yelled for them to shut up - one delegate said they were harmed by the strobes. They were booed and told they were being too sensitive

- currently no other DFL official or member of the Klobuchar campaign has reached out to me. The next day there was a note to tell me to go to the 2nd floor information booth. None of the staff or volunteers knew what that meant. I couldnt find a 2nd floor information booth, and neither could staff

while the other delegates around me jumped in, only one official, my local rep @davidformn40b.bsky.social, assisted. He stayed with me, escalated the issue, and helped get the lights turned off. He also checked in with me the next day to make sure I was okay

- strobe lights are prohibited by convention rules - the accommodations team seems to have not known this, as it was not mentioned in their response. I was told there would be a sensory room free of flashing lights (which wouldn't help *after* I've had a seizure)

- I submitted an accommodation request to the convention organizers regarding flashing lights are dangerous to me. This was well before the submission deadline for requests

I am one of the people [epileptic] who was impacted by the strobing swag the @klobuchar.senate.gov campaign handed out at the DFL state convention. Here are some fun facts:

Dear Hollywood, Could we please, for the love of God, stop with the flashing lights? Sincerely, Your friendly neighborhood epileptic
