Advocacy booths are set up at No Kings right at the entrance to the West Lawn in front of the State Capitol along East 7th! Lots of great groups are out here today. Be sure to swing by the Polk Dems table and fill out an absentee ballot request form so you can vote from home in this Primary Election. 🗳️

Big thanks to Kay Mackey and the volunteers from the West Des Moines Democrats for helping register voters.

And thank you to Joe Henry of the South Side Democrats for sharing your tent with us, and to all the amazing volunteers who jumped in to help wherever needed. We appreciate you!
