The Dane County Democratic Party offers candidates in nonpartisan spring elections the chance to apply for an endorsement from our membership.
Guidelines for spring 2023 endorsements:
- Submit the candidate questionnaire by February 17 to be interviewed by the Endorsement Committee on the weekend of February 25-26 (note the original deadline of February 15 has been extended).
– If you are a candidate in a race with no primary (i.e., a candidate in an uncontested race or with only 2 candidates), you may submit your questionnaire by February 17 to be interviewed the weekend of February 25-26..
– If you are a candidate in a race with a primary (i.e., a candidate in a race with 3+ candidates), you may submit your questionnaire by February 17 but we will not schedule an interview until after the primary and your interview will be the weekend of February 25-26.
– If you are a candidate who was endorsed by Dane Dems in the previous election cycle for the seat you are currently running for please submit your questionnaire by February 17. The Committee will review your questionnaire and let you know whether they wish to interview you. If the Committee wishes to have an interview it will be scheduled the weekend of February 25-26.
