Since Bernie Sanders, DSA has been building a serious electoral machine running (and winning) races across the country at the city, state, and national level. With all that work DSA has one of the strongest electoral organizations on the left with winning candidates from Seattle to Georgia.  

Often DSA has had to rely on outside candidates and build new relationships from scratch, but more and more we're able to recruit incredible candidates from within our organization. To learn more about this we'll hear from cadre candidates about how you can run DSA cadre members for elected office — and how cadre candidates can make a difference in campaigns.
