It's Endorsement Week!!
Last week, our amendment to the BYD constitution passed, which will allow BYD to pursue ranked endorsements in the upcoming Mayoral primary!📋🕺

With that in mind, we can now move forward with our endorsement process. This will be a big week, so please make sure you are checking your email for messages from OpaVote! Here's what to expect:
  • Today-Tomorrow: Indicate whether each mayoral candidate should be part of the 5-person slate. Candidates must receive at least 60% approval to move forward. Members will have within 24 hours to complete.
  • Tuesday-Thursday: Submit a ranked-choice vote among mayoral candidates who met the 60% threshold. Also submit a vote for comptroller and public advocate (standard, non-ranked vote). Members will have 48 hours to complete this round.

Review Key Endorsement Materials

Since last week, we've had one more mayoral candidate (Adrienne Adams) fill out our endorsement questionnaire. We also received questionnaires from three candidates for public advocate. In advance of voting, please make sure to review the following resources:

1. Responses to our endorsement questionnaire from mayoral, comptroller and public advocate candidates (in a folder here or spreadsheet here)

2. Videos submitted by mayoral candidates 

Brooklyn Represented in Full Force at the New York State Convention

Brooklyn Young Democrats showed up strong at this year’s New York State Young Democrats Convention—reaching chartering status once again and with even more delegates and members than the last convention!

We cast our votes for the new executive slate and caucus leadership and celebrated at the gala where rising young Democratic electeds were honored. But most importantly, our delegation built powerful cross-county relationships—connecting with young Democrats from across New York as we gear up to make our state a xxxxxx for democracy in the face of federal threats. 

We showed up, stood out, and led with purpose the Brooklyn way.

Also a special shoutout to Seamus Campbell (founding BYD member) on his last convention with BYD! We want to thank him for his years of service to our club🙇🎉
