We had a 68% Win/Loss Ratio (15/22 endorsements won their elections) which is really good considering the number of races we engaged in. There were several races where our candidates barely edged out the next closest competitor, and we think it’s fair to say that without our help they likely would have lost.
We consistently focus our endorsements on picking candidates we believe are best for BRR and the community, not just who is most likely to win their race. We have a firm belief that BRR should be consistent and stand up for what we believe, even if that means taking some tough loses.
