City Council Candidate Questionaires

We are excited to have endorsement applications for two candidates running for Santa Fe City Council. Alma Castro, running in District 1, and Miguel Acosta, running in District 3. Alma Castro's candidate questionnaire can be found here, and Miguel Acosta's candidate questionaire can be found here. Please take the time to read through these answers ahead of the meeting. Both candidates will be present to answer any additional questions.

We will also be conducting delegate elections for this summer's DSA National Convention. Santa Fe DSA has been allocated 1 delegate and 1 alternate for the convention. If you would like to run as a delegate, please fill out this nomination form. Nominations will be open until 2 PM. If contested, the election for delegate will be conducted virtually, through OpaVote, and will last from Sunday evening until 11:59 PM on Friday, June 2. The election for delegate will be conducted via Instant Runoff Voting (to learn more about this process, this article has detailed information). The first place winner of the election will be the chapter's delegate, after which we will re-tabulate the ballots with the winner excluded, to decide the chapter's alternate. Please contact the organizing committee at [email protected] if there are any questions about the process.
