2012 is shaping up to be a high-energy election year, with elections for Governor, U.S. Senator, four members of Congress (with our brand-new 4th District), 89 state legislators and more. The presidential contest is likely to create higher-than-normal turnout in Utah this year, which could affect any and all of these races.

In these major election years, Utah Foundation offers the Utah Priorities Project, and award-winning effort to connect voters and political candidates by focusing on the issues that Utah voters themselves select as this year’s priorities.

Join us for our annual fundraising luncheon as we unveil the top 10 public policy priorities for 2012, based on a statewide Dan Jones & Associates survey. We’ll also kick off this political year with speeches by:

• The Honorable Gary Herbert, Governor of Utah
• David Kirkham, Republican candidate for Governor
• Morgan Philpot, Republican candidate for Governor
• Ken Sumsion, Republican candidate for Governor
• Peter Cooke, Democratic candidate for Governor

Admission:

• $50 for Utah Foundation members
• $65 for non-members
• $500 for a table of 10

Time and Location:

• Thursday, March 22, 2012, 12:00 to 1:30 p.m
• Little America Hotel, 500 S. Main St., Salt Lake City
