I sent the following letter to the delegates from my precinct to the Utah State Republican Nominating Convention which will be held on May 8th, 2010. If any of the candidates get’s 60% of the delegate votes at the convention, the candidate will become the Republican Party nominee without a primary election. I am posting it here as an open letter to all delegates to the state convention.

Dear delegates,
Thanks for reaching out to ask for my opinion and for all your work to represent us at the state convention.
You might remember me from our neighborhood caucus meeting. I also ran to be a state delegate with the intention of replacing Mr.Bennett. I realize that in our precinct, most of you expressed support for Mr.Bennett, and that professor Frederickson, in particular, is a personal friend for his (though she did emphasize, to her credit, that just because she is a friend does not mean that she agrees with him). I hope you realize that I do not think he is a bad person. He has done what he thinks is right, and that is admirable. I do think, however, that what Mr. Bennett thinks is right and what I think is right are no longer aligned.

I spent nearly my entire weekend (night and day) extracting, preparing, encoding, and uploading digital video. I am happy to say that the ordeal is mostly over and I’m very excited about the result.
I know what a bad feeling it is to go into the voting booth and to look at empty names, with no idea who they are or what they want to accomplish other than what I can assume from their party affiliation. So, as part of my volunteer efforts for Citizens’ Resource we now have short, online video presentations by nearly all of the candidates that will appear in contested races on the Utah County ballot available on Google video.
Hopefully all of you will take advantage of email, blogs, and the word-of-mouth power of “viral marketing” to help as many people view these videos as possible before voting on November 7th.
