Are you an MCV member wanting to help while learning more about local candidates?

We are currently looking for MCV members to serve on Endorsement Interview Panels. When there are competitive races with no MCV-endorsed incumbent, Team MCV interviews candidates with a panel of MCV members. These panels then provide recommendations to the MCV Action Fund Board. Endorsement Interview Panels are an essential part of our endorsement process, and while we don’t know yet where they may be needed, we’re building our list of interested panelists today!

Complete the form below if you’d like to serve on an Endorsement Interview Panel!
