| IRS990ScheduleC/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | IN 2019, THE ORGANIZATION ENDORSED VARIOUS CANDIDATES FOR LOCAL OFFICE. IN THIS REGARD, IT FACILITATED CANDIDATE INTERVIEWS AND QUESTIONNAIRES, AS WELL AS ENDORSEMENT VOTES BY ITS MEMBERS. THE ORGANIZATION PROMOTED ITS CANDIDATE ENDORSEMENTS PRIMARILY THROUGH ACTIVITIES SUCH AS EMAILS AND ONLINE POSTINGS, AND THROUGH FACILITATING VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES WITH THE ENDORSED CANDIDATES' CAMPAIGNS. THE COST OF THESE ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING STAFF TIME, REPRESENTED A SMALL FRACTION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S TOTAL ANNUAL BUDGET (ABOUT 2%). AS FOR VOLUNTEERS, BECAUSE THEY WERE USUALLY MANAGED DIRECTLY BY CANDIDATE CAMPAIGNS, IT IS DIFFICULT TO CALCULATE HOW MANY HOURS THEY ULTIMATELY VOLUNTEERED WITH EACH CAMPAIGN. |
