KSL News in Utah did an interview with BYU students Hannah Wheelwright and Ben Ader – once again making the point that many Mormons will vote for Obama in November.  And of course, Hannah is sporting some really nice bumper stickers on her computer.  This kind of publicity and dedication is encouraging and energizing – especially to find this reporting on a […]

This picture appeared on an Italian language news site!  Kelly, one of our own, was at a rally in Virginia representing Mormons for Obama!  She is proudly wearing her “Mormons for Obama” t-shirt.  This shirt, by the way, is available on CafePress.com. And Kelly wasn’t even aware she had ended up on a news site – she just knew […]

This video and the following post are from Odyssey Networks: Mormon Democrats are a rarity in Utah. They represent just 7 percent of Mormons in the state, but came out full force Tuesday evening at an LDS Democrats event held in Charlotte, N.C. in and around the Democratic National Convention.  LDS Democrats, many of whom […]

One of the most exciting events of the day was the gathering of Democratic Saints in Charlotte NC to usher in the DNC and recognize the many of us that support President Obama.  Those of us who were not there are jealous of course, but we celebrate the unity of Democratic Mormons across our great […]

Like Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, he worked as bishop at his local Church of Latter-day Saints, caring for the well-being of his “flock.” “It does […]

So as McKay Coppins pointed out on BuzzFeed, “Within minutes of Mitt Romney officially winning the Republican nomination, the Facebook page for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints posted a blunt reminder that it is “politically diverse.”  And so I will attempt to express that political diversity with my own comments about the […]

Reblogged from kiwimormon: So its election year in the US.  It’s the year that we get to trust the American public to select the ‘leader of the free world’ (whatever that rather presumptuous aphorism means?).    It’s the year that our news programmes at the ends of the earths are clogged with the latest from the […]

If you are a member of our Mormons for Obama Facebook group, you know this already: Mormon Democrats are gathering for an event coinciding with the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Harry Reid is to be their keynote speaker.  (He promises to speculate on Romney’s taxes only twice in his address!)  The Salt Lake […]
