Alexandria 2024 General Election: Questionnaire Responses

Endorsement process:
Council: All candidates who respond to our questionnaire are eligible for endorsement. Once all responses were received, YIMBY Action members living in the City of Alexandria were given the opportunity to vote for up to six endorsees for City Council. We have endorsed the top six candidates, all of whom received support from at least 70% of our voting members.
Mayor: We ran a similar process during the Democratic Primary for Mayor, and our members overwhelmingly voted to endorse Alyia Gaskins. As she is running unopposed in the general election, she retains our enthusiastic endorsement.
