Approved by DWS for background distribution by Luis and April … let me know if you have question.

The rules governing our process for appointments to convention standing committees were established in 2014 long before any candidates declared and follow the same process that have governed these appointments for many cycles.  The co-chairs of all of the committees and the At-Large members were elected by the DNC Executive Committee members in January 2016. That meeting was open to the public and all of the campaigns were participants in that process.

The overwhelming remainder (87%) of the Standing Committee membership is elected by each state’s National Convention Delegates after being nominating by the presidential campaigns, proportional to each campaign’s percentage of the state wide vote.

The Platform drafting committee is a subcommittee of the larger platform committee. Those members have not yet been named but the appointments will be made in consultation with both campaigns, as has been the case in past cycles.  Both campaigns are fully aware of our process.
