Candidates will have to work a little harder this year to earn what has become one of the more sought-after endorsements in local politics.

Stonewall Democrats of Dallas, the third-largest chapter of the national LGBT political group, will screen candidates for endorsements in the March 4 primary from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 20 at the Resource Center of Dallas.

With the chapter’s membership and clout continuing to grow, SDD leaders said they’ve significantly expanded the scope of questions on surveys that were distributed to candidates in advance of the meeting. Copies of filled-out surveys will be available for viewing from 11 a.m. to noon.
