Marshall County Democrat Chairman Jim Smart announced that this year’s Democrat Gala Dinner will be held on Sunday, November 12 at Opie’s Deli and Office in downtown Plymouth. Social hour will start at 4 p.m. and the dinner portion will commence at 5:30 p.m.
Smart added that he is pleased to see that three qualified candidates will run in the May primary and the winner will eventually face incumbent Jackie Walorski for the 2nd District Congressional seat in November of 2018.
All three candidates, Pat Hackett, Mel Hall and Yatish Joshi, accepted invitations to speak at the gala dinner. This will give citizens a chance to hear them speak publically about their platforms and interact with them personally during the social hour.
The speakers will begin at approximately 6:30 p.m. All tickets for the event have been sold out so the chairman expects a full house to be in attendance during Sunday’s gala dinner.
