Monthly Meeting Saturday March 15 1:15pm, Devon Remiker at 2:30
agenda for our next meeting on Saturday the 15th. As usual, we will meet at the office in Mineral Point, 43 High St.
Please note among the items there the election of delegates to the 2nd Congressional District convention in Blanchardville on April 26th. Information about the election of delegates was sent to current party members last week. But let me add here that anyone is welcome to attend the convention as a visitor. There is a registration fee, but it is modest — $25 or $30 dollars. I’ll have the exact number on Saturday.
The meeting will begin at 1:30, and at 2:30 we will welcome Devon Remiker, the Chair of the state Democratic party.

Early 1:30pm Start, Iowa County Democratic Party November 8th 2025 Meeting. Sarah Rodriguez 2:30pm
Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez candidate for Governor November 8 2025 
Group Picture November 8, 2025 Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez Candidate for Governor One-time early 1:30pm meeting start to allow business to complete before a governor candidate speaks.
Sarah Rodriguez’s campaign reached out to have her visit our monthly meeting Saturday November 8, 2025. Sarah will arrive around 2:30 and stay for 30-45 minutes. Usually she talks for 10 minutes or so and then enganges in discussion with the audience, which I think is just fine. Looking forward to the discussion.
This may be a future solution to work with candidates wanting to speak. We do have some significant business to get through, including elections, coming events and the question of keeping the office. But I imagine that can all be accomplished in an hour. Doing the business stuff first means that we can focus on Rodriguez with no pressure to have a hard stop.
Note: Elections will be held at the December 13, 2025 2pm meeting at the country party office, 43 High St, Mineral Point.
