We had an exciting Membership Meeting last Thursday!

We came together and voted on endorsing local and state candidates for the June 2018 Primary Election. Thank you to all members who came to cast their vote and support the club! 

Per club bylaws, to be eligible for endorsement a candidate must be a registered Democrat and fill out our candidate questionnaire. A candidate must receive at least 60% of the votes cast to be endorsed. 

The following candidates have received endorsements from the East Bay Stonewall Democratic Club for the June 2018 Primary Election: 

Secretary of State: Alex Padilla

State Treasurer: Fiona Ma

State Controller: Betty Yee

State Insurance Commissioner: Richard Lara

State Superintendent of Public Education: Tony Thurmond

State Board of Equalization, 2nd District: Malia Cohen

U.S. Congress CA District 13: Barbara Lee

Alameda County Superior Court, Seat 11: Judge Tara Flanagan

Alameda County Board of Education Trustee, Area 1: Joaquin Rivera

While the club also voted on the Alameda County District Attorney and Assembly District 15 races, no candidate reached the 60% threshold. 

Congratulations to all candidates who received an endorsement!

Stay tuned for more exciting club news and events!
