It was around 100 degrees at the Walnut Creek Recreation Area in Papillion, Neb. on Saturday, but that didn’t keep a couple dozen people from coming out for ice cream and meeting with political candidates.
The event was hosted by Nora and Michael Sandine, and guests got to hear from speakers such as the recently-elected Congressman Mike Flood (NE-01), Sen. Deb Fischer, Lt. Gov. candidate Joe Kelly, Congressman Don Bacon, Secretary of State Bob Evnen, and several candidates for the Papillion city council, OPPD, and other county or city level positions.
Congressman Don Bacon (NE-02) also said a few words and brought along a few guests along — Tom Hunt and Scott Benton, two Members of Parliament from the UK, who he was showing around Omaha.
