CANDIDATE ENDORSEMENTS
The Equality PAC does not make endorsements in all races. We issue endorsements in selected races where our support can make a critical difference, or when a candidate has a proven track record of supporting GLBT equality.
Can’t find your district on our list? It can mean one of a few things: either no candidate filled out a questionnaire, or there was no compelling reason to endorse one candidate over another, or the race is uncontested, or this seat is not up for reelection this year.
In other local races, we use a stoplight system to help you make your voting decisions. A “Green Light” means that the candidate is good on GLBT issues and has demonstrated some leadership on GLBT issues. A “Red Light” means that the candidate is an opponent of GLBT equality. Therefore, it is possible for multiple candidates in a race to get a “Green Light.” It is also possible that we may chose not to weigh in on a candidate or race at all. |
