2025 ENDORSEMENTS

Coalition-Activate provides endorsed candidates with graphics, public or nonpublic support, strategy, phone banking, funding recommendations, and other forms of support.

Please Note: 

  • There are hundreds of races across the state. In races where an endorsement was not made, candidates did not submit questionnaires or the Coalition-Activate did not have local staff/volunteer capacity to provide support 

  • We do not endorse write-in candidates

  • Some races had more than one strong candidate. We prioritized new and diverse voices

  • We continue to improve our systems each election cycle. If you have any questions, please email Info@Coalition-Activate.org

Please visit endorsed candidates, support the campaigns, and vote!

50th Ward Update:

The Coalition-Activate stands with our allies of all faiths, races, and backgrounds. We need new and diverse voices in the City Council. Despite the controversy surrounding offensive deleted social media posts that re-surfaced during the campaign, we think Mr. Bawany’s apology and demonstrated capacity for effective coalition building speak to his growth and leadership potential.

Alderwoman Silverstein did not submit the questionnaire.
