In partisan primaries when there are two or more Democrats running for an office, Grassroots North Shore often needs to poll our paid members to determine whether to endorse a candidate in a given race and if so, which candidate. The links on this page provide you with information candidates submitted for our consideration. If a candidate requested an endorsement, that request is included with the candidate's responses to the questionnaire the Endorsements Committee sent.

Below is the list of candidates Grassroots North Shore is endorsing for the August 6 partisan primary with links to the information each candidate submitted to the Endorsement Committee. These did not require a vote of the membership either because the opposing candidates did not submit the information that was requested or because the opposing candidate is in effect running a "false flag" operation (running as a Democrat when she is clearly a Republican backed by Koch dollars and the Walker network).
