Candidate Review Process
This is the only process by which a candidate for elected office can secure an interview for possible endorsement by Grassroots America – We the People PAC. All requests made by email, text, phone call, social media platform messaging, or homing pigeon will be referred to this page.
Interview Request
To request an interview with JoAnn Fleming, our Executive Director (for all candidates appearing on ballots outside of Smith County) or with our Board of Directors (All statewide ballot candidates and Smith County candidates), please complete the online Pre-Interview Form. You will be contacted when scheduling of interviews commences.
Before completing the Pre-Interview Form, please read our entire endorsement process as outlined in the down-loadable document cited above.. No requests will be considered without the completed form.
Candidate First Alert for the November 2024 General Election Cycle
We do not automatically endorse all Republicans in a General Election.
Let me make this crystal clear one more time! The only candidates eligible for an endorsement are those who contact us for an interview. We do not chase candidates down! If your candidate does not meet the July 15 deadline below, that is the candidate’s fault. If you care about it, nudge your candidate, but do not send me a nastygram if the deadline failure is on your end. That will not help your cause and it won’t bother me one little bit to delete the nastygram.
Republican General Election candidates who had NO Primary opponent, must request an interview and fill out the online form at the button above. The absolute deadline to request an interview is July 15th – no exceptions.
Exception: Conservative winners whom we endorsed in the 2024 Republican Primary or Republican Primary Runoff will automatically be endorsed for the General Election if they have a Donkey challenger. No additional interview is required.
