Endorsements are an important part of a political campaign–and Linda is proud of the many she’s received thus far. Endorsements are a public declaration of support for a candidate.
Endorsements matter to candidates, to funders and especially to voters. They add credibility to a campaign. Endorsements inspire new volunteers who share values and priorities.
It’s not easy to get an endorsement
Endorsements require a lot of work. Candidates must fill out a detailed questionnaire about specific issues, upcoming decisions and philosophy. Often organizations require a follow up interview to hear how candidates spontaneously react and communicate their positions.
Linda has also earned these endorsements in recognition of her active participation in the community as well as her stands on issues, values and her skills. Her background as a scientist has been a factor in this campaign. She has earned the respect of the Sierra Club, Moms Demand Action, We Can Lead Change, the Association of American University Women, Geneva Learners, Wild Ones Native Plants, Kane County Democratic Women, American Society of Microbiologists and other groups.
Linda is honored to have earned more than a dozen endorsements so far including:
- Planned Parenthood
