I am happy to once again endorse Oscar Mata for UDP Vice Chair. His experience running campaigns for Democrats across the state, especially two campaigns resulting in wins for the late, great "Lou" Shurtliff, and running for a House seat himself make him uniquely qualified to recruit and assist Democratic candidates to build our party.

I've watched Oscar doing the hard work to build the Democratic Party in Utah, win elections and grow our base. For us to succeed, Utah Democrats need to expand our success across the state. Oscar is the right choice to continue leading that work. He has earned my support because I've seen how hard he works over many years.

Oscar and the Utah Democratic Party were amazing to work with in my reelection campaign. I received more support in 2022 from the state party than I have ever had in my previous races.

As the last Democrat to be elected to the Utah House from rural Utah I enthusiastically support Oscar Mata. Oscar understands rural Utah and has been doing the work to elect Democrats in the reddest pockets of our state for years. We need that knowledge and leadership running our state party.
