Placer County Democrats Pack Rocklin Biergarten for Annual Oktoberfest Fundraiser
ROCKLIN, CA – The Placer County Democratic Party drew a packed crowd Thursday night, October 23, 2025, for its third annual Oktoberfest fundraiser at Kathrin’s Biergarten, bringing together local Democrats, Democratic candidates, and community members for an evening of food, music, and organizing energy.
Guests enjoyed a traditional German buffet, local craft beers, and lively conversation about the road to 2026 and the need to pass Proposition 50, as speakers emphasized the need to build momentum ahead of next year’s key local, state, and congressional races.
“Yes on 50 isn’t just a NO on Trump; it’s a NO on Kevin Kiley ,” said Ruth Cox, Chair of the Democratic Club of Lincoln.

Prop. 50 is an emergency, temporary measure to protect California’s voice in Congress. After partisan map-rigging in states like Texas, this proposition lets California make short-term adjustments to its own congressional maps to restore balance and fairness. It ensures our state isn’t silenced by gerrymandering elsewhere and helps safeguard fair representation until national redistricting reforms can take hold.
