Voting opened at 11:30 AM on April 17, 2021 and closed at 6:00PM on April 18, 2021. Out of the eligible members who voted, 79.2% of voters voted to endorse the Endorsement Committee’s recommended slate.
The membership of the Liberty City LGBTQ+ Democratic Club, the only organization in Philadelphia exclusively committed to organizing LGBTQ+ Democrats, has voted. Today we are proud to announce our endorsements for the 2021 primary election.
