Endorsements
ENDC is not just a Democratic club, we firmly believe in the value of a robust democracy. We believe that only a government by the people and for the people can be a legitimate representation of our communal aspirations and the key to fulfilling our humanity. We have dedicated our club activities to engaging voters and increasing voter turnout in districts 3, 6, and 10. To ensure our members understand what's on their ballot and how that can affect our city, ENDC researches each candidate and ballot measure and comes up with a list of endorsements.
A Message From Bruce
About Proposition 50
ENDC is proud to join the San Francisco Democratic County Central Committee and the California Democratic Party in endorsing Yes on Prop 50 - The Election Rigging Response Act. Here's what it does in response to Donald Trump and Texas Republicans making an unprecedented power grab to steal congressional seats and rig next year’s election before voting even begins:
-
It makes sure the 2026 mid-term elections are conducted on a level playing field without an unfair advantage for Republicans.
-
It commits to fair redistricting - Prop 50 reaffirms California’s commitment to independent redistricting and calls on all states to commit to fair and impartial maps.
-
It gives voter powers - Prop 50 puts the power in the hands of the People of California to approve emergency congressional district maps.
-
It is fair and proportional - Prop 50 provides emergency maps ONLY because Republicans moved forward with their power grab.
-
It is temporary - These maps expire in 2030. Prop 50 preserves California’s award-winning redistricting reforms and reaffirms the California Redistricting Commission’s authority to draw congressional districts after the next census.
Please join us at mobilizations over the next 6 weeks to Get Out the Vote for Yes on Prop 50
