2026 Nominating Convention




 

What is a Salt Lake County Party Nominating Convention? 

Our Nominating Convention is where members of the Salt Lake County Democratic Party gather together to discuss party business and elect our Democratic nominees for partisan public office.

 

We will also have meetings for our many issue and identity caucuses where you can learn about and join them and a training for people interested in running for local office.
