Commissioner Endorsement
PNN has decided not to endorse a candidate for Commissioner, as the Primary election is uncontested.

Our Endorsement Process
-
We begin in the late Fall before a Primary election to find out who has declared candidacy for key state and local elections. We have sometimes encouraged individuals to run for office.
-
We present all candidates with a lengthy questionnaire tailored to the office, current issues and our policy initiatives.
-
After reviewing candidate responses, we invite each applicant to meet with small groups of our knowledgeable senior members to explain their responses and why we should endorse them.
-
On occasion we will sponsor candidate forums to allow a larger audience to hear from the candidates directly.
-
After meeting all applicants for endorsement, our interviewer groups pool their notes, discuss what they have learned from the written and in-person responses and make a presentation to the Steering Committee.
-
The Steering Committee will then send endorsement recommendations via the internet to our members along with the materials submitted by the candidates.
-
The membership then votes on a slate
-
After tallying the vote, we inform the candidates and the public of our endorsement.
