In addition to being a city council candidate, Patrick Von Dohlen is president of the anti-LGBTQ San Antonio Family Association.
In a May 18 press release, the Stonewall Democrats of San Antonio "strongly urged” voters not to cast ballots in the June 5 runoff election for District 9 candidate Patrick Von Dohlen citing his “extensive history of inciting anti-LGBTQIA hate.”
In the District 9 runoff, Von Dohlen is facing off against incumbent John Courage who received 47% of the vote in the general election. Von Dohlen also ran for the District 9 seat in 2019 and 2017 but didn't make it into the runoffs either time.
