Dozens of local candidates used a Davis County Conservatives forum to introduce their campaigns and outline priorities for the caucus and convention calendar, while a sitting county commissioner delivered an extended critique of county management and endorsed multiple conservative candidates.

John Taylor, who said he is running for House District 14, described himself as "a true red constitutional conservative candidate" and urged attendees to learn more and attend the caucus. Braden Hess, a candidate for Senate District 7, said he would "do everything in my power to be on the judicial committee to actually vet these judges" if elected; Jennifer Garner, also running for Senate District 7, emphasized protecting children and criticized what she called "taxation without representation." Kaysville Mayor Tammy Tran announced a bid for Senate District 6 and focused on limiting state overreach into local zoning.

Several local county candidates spoke: Scott Fletcher identified himself as running for Davis County Commission seat A and said he would not gather signatures to get on the ballot; Susan Lee (seeking county commission seat B) framed her campaign around fiscal restraint, saying county spending had outpaced growth. Johnna Whitesides said she is running for county clerk on a platform of transparency and accountability; John Atkin introduced his candidacy for county sheriff and highlighted public‑safety and cybercrime preparedness.

An extended address by a county commissioner (the speaker did not provide a name in the transcript) criticized county leadership and operations, alleged three missing audits, and described a culture of poor transparency and favoritism. The speaker urged attendees to turn out delegates and supported the candidates Susan Lee, Scott Fletcher, John Atkin and Johnna Whitesides. "We have an ugly culture in the county ... We have 3 missing audits that nobody knows about," the commissioner said, and urged civic involvement ahead of the caucus and convention.

Forum organizers asked attendees to return in two weeks, to bring neighbors to upcoming meetings and to support candidates through donations and volunteer work. No formal endorsements or ballots were conducted by the group during the meeting; several attendees and speakers announced intentions to seek convention slots or to run in upcoming primaries.
