Our annual Morrison Exon Dinner was an incredible night! We had a great time with the 400 Democrats that came from all over the state.
A special shout out to Sen. Jeff Merkely for coming to Nebraska and talking with us about issues ranging from immigration to climate change.
Candidates, activists, elected officials, party leaders, and community leaders inspired us all to get out there and knock doors to win elections.
