Plus Voices of Victory: Our Convention Celebration!

LATEST ENDORSEMENTS

It’s true! We’ve shattered our previous endorsement records and are supporting over 300 LGBTQ candidates this year. Meet the latest slate here!

Spotlight candidate Kristin Graziano is running to make history as the first openly LGBTQ sheriff in South Carolina. Even though she hasn’t won her race yet, she’s already hard at work fighting dangerous jail conditions.

In Mississippi, Spotlight candidate Fabian Nelson is fighting to shatter a rainbow ceiling: the state has never elected an openly LGBTQ state legislator. Watch his campaign announcement here!

Election Day is right around the corner for Gretchen Van Ness. She made her final pitch to voters on why she’s the right candidate for the Massachuetts state House.

 

QUEERING CONGRESS

The race for Texas’s 23rd Congressional District is getting dirty. The National Republican Campaign Committee tried to attack Gina Ortiz Jones for being gay. But after a swift outcry, they’ve changed their homophobic statement. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this one.

It’s been a very busy week for Alex Morse – and Primary Day is this Tuesday in Massachusetts's 1st Congressional District! First, he announced two endorsements from U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Courage to Change PAC and San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz. Then, he joined Massachusetts state Representative Julian Cyr for a one-on-one conversation on our Facebook Live about the state of the race (watch here!). And finally: he outraised his opponent, a sitting Congressman, during the final quarter.

We’re thrilled to hear that U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren is endorsing U.S. Congresswoman Angie Craig’s reelection campaign for Minnesota's 2nd Congressional District and Jon Hoadley’s campaign for Michigan’s 6th district!

Georgette Gómez joined MSNBC to give an update on her race for California’s 53rd Congressional District and her plans to make LGBTQ history in November. Watch her interview here!
