For Those Seeking Endorsement

To ensure your questionnaire is considered for endorsement, you must fill out the questionnaire. Emailed questionnaires will not be considered. Although we cannot guarantee we will conduct an endorsement in every race across the state, we appreciate you taking the time out of your campaign schedule to fill out Washington Conservation Action’s questionnaire. Please reach out to Political & Civic Engagement Director Joy Stanford (joy@waconservationaction.org) if you have any issues filling out the form.

Endorsement Process

Washington Conservation Action issues endorsements to inform voters of which candidates running for office make environmental justice and creating a clean economy top priorities. All candidates to be considered for endorsement by Washington Conservation Voters must complete our questionnaire. The Washington Conservation Voters Political Committee reviews completed questionnaires and may choose to interview candidates. The Political Committee votes to endorse candidates for all positions that are not statewide. For statewide races, the Political Committee makes a recommendation to the full WCV Board which votes to confirm or deny the recommendation.

Washington Conservation Action is committed to equal opportunity, and committed to maintaining an accessible and equitable endorsement process. Accommodations for the endorsement process are available and will be made upon request. Please complete this form regarding accommodations or accommodations requests. We welcome feedback on the accessibility of our website and endorsements process.
