ENDORSEMENTS
The Dolphin Democrats Campaign Committee and the Board of Directors are honored to announce our endorsed candidates and judicial recommendations for the upcoming election on Tuesday, August 20th.
Endorsements are determined by the voting members of our organization. In races featuring two or more Democratic candidates, a candidate must secure two-thirds of the vote to receive our endorsement. For races with a single Democratic candidate, a simple majority is required.
We extend our sincere gratitude to all candidates who engaged in the endorsement process by submitting a comprehensive questionnaire and attending the endorsement meeting. We also express our deep appreciation to the members who participated in this critical process.
