What does HSLF do when a candidate is excellent in some areas of animal protection but not in others?
Sometimes we have to make a difficult decision, such as endorsing a candidate who is a great friend of wild animals but not necessarily as helpful with companion animals, or vice versa. Other times, we may choose to support an elected official who is the chairman of an important committee, who could take the lead on passing important pro-animal bills, even if the official does not support our entire agenda. In short, we don’t require 100% orthodoxy to our issues; we take into consideration the candidate’s district, how the candidate compares to his or her opponent in a race, and other information. An endorsement is always a judgment between candidates who are running for the same seat.
