The Stonewall Democrats of Austin will hold its monthly membership meeting on Wednesday, December 8, 2021, at 6:30 pm. 

Due to the continued uncertainty around COVID and having in-person meetings, the Stonewall Democrats of Austin will not be conducting our usual candidate endorsement forum. Instead we will allow candidates in contested primary races the opportunity to speak to our members via Zoom. Our December 8 meeting will be for contested Judicial primary races. We will host the meeting remotely on ZOOM, with the meeting connection information below. 

Our January 12, 2022 meeting will be for contested NON-Judicial primary races. 

Because we will not be meeting in person we will be voting on the endorsements via electronic ballots, which will be sent out to current dues paid members following our January 12 meeting with the results being announced at our February 9 membership meeting.

A reminder that the membership dues for SDA are for a calendar year (January to December). In order to be eligible to vote in the endorsement process, you must be a current member in good standing for at least 30 days prior to the endorsement meeting. Dues can be paid at:
