September kicked off with a strong start, and we’ve been building momentum ever since! Here are some key highlights:
Labor Day Picnic & Car Show
We celebrated Labor Day by standing in solidarity with our union brothers and sisters at the annual Labor Day Picnic and Car Show. It was a great way to honor the hardworking individuals who keep our communities strong.
County Candidates Panel
At the Democracy Conference, our County district candidates participated in a panel hosted by Chair Jade Velazquez, where they shared their vision for Salt Lake County.
Presidential Debate Watch Parties
Our Debate Watch Parties were packed with energy, as supporters came out in full force to cheer on the candidates and engage in lively discussions.
Utah State Fair & Tabling at Festivals
We connected with voters across the county, tabling at the Utah State Fair, Groove in the Grove, the Avenues Street Fair, and the Progressive Block Party, bringing our message directly to the community.
Fundraiser with the Women’s Democratic Club
Our collaboration with the Women’s Democratic Club for the Saturday's Voyeur Fundraiser was a big success, showcasing the strength of our partnerships.
County Forum Luncheon with Natalie Pinkney
At the County Forum Luncheon, County Council At-Large candidate Natalie Pinkney inspired attendees with her vision for a better Salt Lake County.
Canvassing & Community Events
Throughout the month, our dedicated volunteers worked tirelessly at fundraisers, house parties, and canvassing events, helping to ensure we get out the vote!
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our September success—let’s keep up the hard work as we head into the final stretch!
