How the Sierra Club's Endorsement Process Works

To ensure the Sierra Club only endorses the best environmental candidates, we have developed a multi-step volunteer-driven process and criteria for selecting which candidates receive our support. Each of our endorsements are voted on by two committees made up of volunteers. Volunteers examine each candidate's record and distribute questionnaires to candidates who meet our criteria. The questionnaire responses are then evaluated, and when applicable, interviews with candidates are conducted. Throughout our process, volunteers and staff evaluate the environmental and public health records of candidates, their electability and their propensity to be a true champion on our issues.

Note: A lack of endorsement does not necessarily mean anything. When candidate is running unopposed, sometimes they do not solicit endorsements. Alternatively, we may not be aware of a particular candidate or a candidate may have simply been delinquent in returning their questionnaire.
