Stonewall Democrats uses a multi-step process for determining our organization's endorsements. ALL Candidates who wish to be considered for endorsement must submit a completed questionnaire by a deadline, and participate in an interview with the Endorsement Committee (either in person, or having a designated surrogate participate in the interview).

By the end of the interview process the Endorsement Committee will have compiled a slate of candidates to endorse in the 2018 Democratic Primary, which then must be ratified in part or whole by the General Membership that attends the January General Meeting (Tuesday, January 16th, 2018).
