Seth Densen — a social worker, turned Democratic candidate for the District 86 seat in the Florida House of Representatives — will hold his first campaign meet-and-greet on Wednesday, Nov. 10 from 6 to 9 p.m. at PapiChulo Restaurant, located at 1005 N. State Road 7 in Royal Palm Beach.
There is no charge to attend, but a suggested donation of $25 is encouraged.
Densen said this first event will set the tone for future events and help share his ideas with local constituents.
“With 20 years in social services and five years working in child welfare services, I have seen firsthand the importance of funding education well and ensuring protection against child and elder abuse,” Densen said. “And I know why we need to stand up for the rights of LGBTQ+ communities and women’s rights. I am ready to stand with those communities and fight the systemic injustices that plague the Florida state house. With support from the community, myself, along with many, many others will create a brighter future for all Floridians.”
But rather than a stand-alone approach that is the cornerstone of most political ambition, Densen said he wants to work across the political spectrum to find common ground solutions, based on his firsthand experiences.
“I think it is obvious to almost everyone we need to find ways to better utilize state money in education and child welfare services,” Densen said. “We must find ways to work with each other to create real and effective changes that address our compromised infrastructure, skyrocketing healthcare costs and a growing homeless population.”
Densen said this will require working together. “Democrats can’t solve these solutions on their own, and neither can Republicans. The difference between my opponents and my campaign is a desire and willingness to work with anyone to create those necessary changes to create a better district, state and nation,” he said.
