A large group of Democratic politicians and political activists turned out for a DFL unity rally for former U.S. Sen. Mark Dayton. The event is meant to show that the party is unified behind Dayton's campaign for governor. The event, which was initially scheduled for 11am, was delayed several hours because Democdrat Margaret Anderson Kelliher didn't concede the race until late morning.

I uploaded Dayton's speech. You can listen to it here: Listen
