Hamilton County Democrats’ annual dinner, formerly known as the Jefferson Jackson Day Dinner, will be held Sept. 21 at the Carmel American Legion, 852 W. Main St.
Karlee Macer, State Representative from Indianapolis, will speak to party faithful. She is expected to announce her plans to run for governor in the near future. She is married and a mother of two.
A 5:30 wine and cheese reception will precede the dinner program. Dinner will be served at 6:30. Tickets for the reception and dinner are $75; for dinner only, the cost is $50.
Democrats have been considering a name for their annual dinner for the past two years. Since both former presidents Jefferson and Jackson were slave owners, the party has decided it is politically incorrect to use their names.
