“Democrats Serve” PAC Endorses Seth Magaziner for Governor
Monday, December 20, 2021
Democrats Serve — a national hybrid political action committee (PAC) that supports Democrats running for office with public service backgrounds — announced it is endorsing Seth Magaziner in his bid for governor.
Brett Broesder, the PAC’s executive director, noted that Seth Magaziner — who is a former public school teacher — is "an excellent example of a Democrat running for office with frontline public service experience who can excel as a candidate and a policymaker."
Broesder has close ties to Rhode Island. He helped run Peter Kilmartin’s campaign for Attorney General in 2010 and then worked on his staff.

Seth is prepared to lead Rhode Island during this critical time, and we’re proud to stand with him in this fight.”
Magaziner, who currently serves as Rhode Island’s General Treasurer, said, “I started my career as a public school teacher and that experience shapes everything I do, including my focus on rebuilding our crumbling schools so students are prepared to thrive and succeed in a modern workforce. I am honored to earn the support of Democrats Serve in my campaign for Governor as they share my commitment to building a stronger economic future that works for every Rhode Islander.”
Democrats Serve works to support public service candidates, many of whom lack access to national donor networks.
After launching in May, the organization endorsed 27 candidates nationwide who were running for state and local office in 2021. Every single candidate endorsed by the group won their respective elections.
For the 2022 midterms, the PAC has made endorsements nationwide in competitive elections, including: U.S. Senate Candidates Cheri Beasley (NC), Val Demings (FL); Sarah Godlewski (WI); U.S. House Candidates Aramis Ayala (FL-10), Christina Bohannan (IA-01), Matt Castelli (NY-21), Valerie Foushee (NC-06), Kara Hahn (NY-01), Jonathan Logemann (IL-17), Ruben Ramirez (TX-15), Tony Vargas (NE-2); Incumbent House Democrats Carolyn Bourdeaux (GA-07), Jahana Hayes (CT-05), Andy Kim (NJ-03), Tom Malinowski (NJ-07), Tom O'Halleran (AZ-01), Katie Porter (CA-45), Mikie Sherrill (NJ-11), Elissa Slotkin (MI-08), Abigail Spanberger (VA-07), Susan Wild (PA-07), Lauren Underwood (IL-14); and Gubernatorial Candidate Katie Hobbs (AZ).
