Out For Democracy: Vacancy at the DNC


May 08, 2005

As most of you know, Eric Stern resigned as Director of GLBT Outreach at the DNC back in February, when he became Executive Director of the Stonewall Democrats. Unforunately, his old position remains vacant.

That same month, the Gay and Lesbian Americans Caucus of the Democratic National Committee made it clear that they would like to see a new GLBT Outreach Director selected. In their statement they asked that the DNC “pledge to maintain and fund at least one full-time senior-level position of Director of GLBT Outreach at the DNC, whose primary responsibility will be policy and organizing.” (article)

At this point it is unclear if there are any plans at the DNC to appoint a new Director of GLBT Outreach. It's been three months. How much longer are we going to wait?

Does someone have to run or atleast announce they are interested? Has there been a groundswell of qualified candidates, that they haven't even looked at?

Hey Chris,

It's an appointed position, so you don't actually run for it. I haven't seen a job description yet or any kind of call for applicants, but I know folks have expressed interest in the position.
