Challenger "disqualified" but plan remains the same

Where does authority come from and who has it?

What the below means in Minnesota Statute 202A.12 STATE CONVENTION, AUTHORITY OF is that the state convention (body/delegates) oversees the State central committee (body/delegates) oversees the state executive committee oversees the committees within state exec AND the chair of the party.

So, if an email was sent saying a nominations committee has disqualified a candidate, the body can over-rule that at the start of the meeting before accepting the proposed rules.
