The Local Convention is the highest deliberative body of Philly DSA and is held every two years for the election of a Steering Committee (the officers, permanent committee chairs, and at-large members), the adoption of a political platform, the determination of long-term strategic priorities, and the reception of our financial report.

  • Submissions to the Philly DSA 2019-2021 Political Platform
  • Nominations for Delegates to the 2019 DSA National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia

Nominations for elected positions will be open between May 4 and May 28. A full list of approved nominees will then be published on June 1, and elections held at the convention on June 8. Candidates must submit nomination applications in order to be eligible for election.

Platform submissions and nominations for delegates to the National Convention will follow the same timelines.

More detailed instructions and information, including nominee and submission requirements, are available in the submission forms.
