Atlanta Stonewall Endorsement Announcement & Party

icon_button.jpg Atlanta Stonewall Democrats is the metro area's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and ally Democratic community. As LGBTQ and ally Democrats, we have a unique and critically important role to play in our community’s struggle for equality. We are working to continue making progress within our Party on issues important to our community, to inform the LGBT community about the differences between the Parties, and to elect fair-minded Democrats to public office.

As Democrats, we have credibility and the opportunities to engage in conversation with traditionally Democratic constituency groups and potential allies of our community in a way that a non-partisan group can not, will not, or would do, but less effectively can we.

had a great time seeing everyone last night! Was good to see Keisha Waites, Earl Giddens, Jason Adams, Tim Riley, Joel Alvarado, Margaret Kaiser, and Nan aka Allen.

Good turnout, good venue, thanks everyone.

Congrats to all the candidates who got the coveted Stonewall endorsement - especially to the new rising star in Cobb, Jason Adams! Jason had 8 events or so between the 4th and 5th, and is working VERY hard up in the 35th...
