Why Does a Political Endorsement Matter?
- An endorsement is not the same thing as a primary. This is an elective process that FCDC runs.
- While elections for School Board members are theoretically non-partisan, the reality of today’s political landscape does not align with that idea.
- All elected officials represent a set of values and ideas. It is FCDC’s mission to elect Democrats that align with Democratic values and ideas. Endorsement is the best way to represent which candidate aligns with those values and ideas and allows FCDC to then create and share a sample ballot with voters.
Fall general election:
- Tuesday, November 7, 2023 – early voting and absentee options will be available! Stay tuned. In the meantime, check your voter registration status and know who represents you!
