COMING UP: MAY AND JUNE PRIMARIES
|

|
Candidates are campaigning harder than ever despite the continued presence of COVID-19. And it’s almost time for that work to pay off!
One of the ways John Blair is preparing for his June 2nd primary? Hosting a candidate forum to talk about his plans for New Mexico’s 3rd Congressional District! Learn more here.
Senior Political Director Sean Meloy spoke with Ritchie Torres about his upcoming primary for New York’s 15th Congressional District. We’re standing with Ritchie against one of this year’s biggest bigots: Rubén Díaz Sr.
Speaking of Ritchie, Victory Fund led a coalition of organizations to expose Diaz’s anti-choice, anti-LGBTQ record. See who stood with us here. |

SUNDAY, MAY 17, 12:00 PM ET: Earlier this year, Pete Buttigieg made history as the first openly gay presidential candidate to win Iowa, forever ending the myth that America isn’t ready for an out president. LGBTQ Victory Fund was proud to be the first national endorsement Pete earned. Join Pete as he reunites with Mayor Annise Parker and The Washington Post’s Jonathan Capehart to reflect on the progress our community has made this year, an update on life after a whirlwind campaign and a discussion on the serious and urgent work ahead in November. Submit questions and RSVP here!
MONDAY, MAY 18, 11:30 AM ET: Control of state legislative chambers is up for grabs across the country in 2020, ahead of next year’s redistricting that will shape local and national politics for the next decade. Join us for a live chat with three women who are fighting to ensure our community is represented in the halls of power: Texas Rep. Celia Israel, Mayor Annise Parker and Jessica Post, President of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee. Set your reminder below and tune in live!
TUESDAY, MAY 19, 3:00 PM ET: In 2020, Democrats could flip the Pennsylvania legislature and finally have a governing majority that stands with the LGBTQ community. There are currently just two openly LGBTQ members in the state House and we’re working to double that number this year, as well as elect the commonwealth’s first out state senator. Join House candidate Jess Benham and Reps. Malcolm Kenyatta and Brian Sims for a live chat with Senior Political Director Sean Meloy on what’s at stake in Pennsylvania this November.
THURSDAY, MAY 21, 3:00 PM ET: Some of our LGBTQ candidates are working on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic WHILE running for political office. Hear from our candidates about how COVID-19 is impacting their work and its effects on their communities. Set a reminder here! |

LGBTQ Victory Fund has helped thousands of openly LGBTQ candidates win elections up and down the ballot, from sea to shining sea since our founding in 1991. We believe representation is power – so we elected U.S. Senators Tammy Baldwin and Kyrsten Sinema, Governors Jared Polis and Kate Brown, all seven LGBTQ members of U.S. Congress and countless candidates for state and local government, including Virginia Delegate Danica Roem, Colorado state Representative Leslie Herod and Pennsylvania Assemblymember Brian Sims. And with an unprecedented number of LGBTQ people running for office in this year, we’ll need your support to make 2020 the next Rainbow Wave.
