About Our Endorsement Process:
The Sierra Club understands the importance of political endorsements and we take our process seriously. We have a completely independent, volunteer-run process.
The Sierra Club's San Francisco Bay Chapter is responsible for endorsements of candidates and ballot measures in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, and San Francisco Counties.
