Golden Post Awards Judges
Nearly 350 entries were received overall for the 2026 Golden Post Awards across 9 categories—an incredible response from the government social media community.
We’re deeply grateful to the 49 judges who made this year’s competition possible. Our distinguished panel included representatives from government agencies across the U.S. and Canada, as well as select professionals from private industry chosen for their unique expertise.
Judges were thoughtfully assigned to panels by category and dedicated significant time to reviewing every eligible entry with care and attention. Judges were permitted to submit entries of their own, provided they did not evaluate the category they entered.
Thank you, 2026 Judges!
We are incredibly grateful to our judges for the time, care, and dedication they brought to this year’s Golden Post Awards. Their thoughtful reviews—and the countless hours they devoted—help shine a spotlight on the very best of government social media. We deeply appreciate their efforts, especially on top of the important work they’re already doing every day in their own agencies and organizations. Thank you for helping elevate the entire socialgov community.
