The Dolphin Democrats Campaign Committee and the Board of Directors are honored to announce our endorsed candidates and recommendations for the upcoming General Election on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.
The 300+ voting members of our organization determine endorsements. In races featuring two or more Democratic candidates, a candidate needed two-thirds of the vote to receive our endorsement. For races with a single Democratic candidate, a simple majority was required to win the endorsement.
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.
Below is the list of our endorsements and recommendations by the Dolphin Democrats and the Florida LGBTQ+ Democratic Caucus:=. You can also scroll to the bottom of this post to download a printable version of our Endorsements and Recommendations Card
