MARCH 25 - UTAH DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS/INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY
Next Tuesday, March 25, there will a Democratic Party Caucus Meeting for House District 63 (which is the Utah state legislative district most of BYU is in) at 7pm in Room 309 of the Provo City Library (corner or University and 500 North). This will serve as our meeting for next week, and we really need the BYU Dems to show up en force to help us make this meeting a success…we’ve been asked to help host the event, so we’re also going to be needing people who can come around 6pm to help set up. We’ve got a great slate of local Democratic candidates this year, and we as College Dems can make a big difference by showing up and supporting them. The caucus meeting will be a chance for you to meet your local candidates for the upcoming State Senate elections and help in planning for their campaigns, etc. We will also be electing state party officials.
Internship - Dr. Don Jarvis, who is campaigning for the State Senate as a representative from Utah County, is looking for student interns to join his campaign and help him win while gaining valuable political experience.
