Common Cause (c4)

Update this information

Deep Canvassing Program to spread accurate, pro-democracy messaging to voters often marginalized by traditional electoral paradigms, and in turn elect more pro-democracy candidates in North Carolina — especially a pro-civil rights seat on the state Supreme Court. Tactics will include door-knocking (both paid and volunteer), phone-banking, and paid GOTV mailers and digital.

Common Cause (501c4) advocates and organizers work in 25 states to pass pro-democracy, pro-voter laws to make it easier to participate in our elections. We have lobbied for and won common sense solutions like expanding vote-by-mail, making ballots available in multiple languages, extending early voting periods, automatic voter registration, and much more. We are also a leading organization in the fight to end partisan gerrymanders and have won multiple campaigns to put redistricting power in the hands of the people, not partisan legislators.

Crimson Goes Blue Inc. (PAC)

Update this information

We seek to add “Connect to Elect” trips to Michigan and Wisconsin. We have learned from previous trips that out-of-state volunteers work many shifts because they have no other commitments. Guided by locals, they provide a much-needed infusion of energy to the local volunteers, inspiring them to canvass more days.

Launched as a pop-up initiative by the class of ‘84 at our 35th Reunion in 2019, the mission of Crimson Goes Blue is to harness the talents, passion, and resources of the Harvard community to forge a more just American democracy. We do that by engaging our community which has grown to 2,000 members in dozens of classes in the work of electing Democrats, protecting the freedom to vote, and ensuring the integrity of our elections in the critical battleground states.

Ohio Citizen Action informs, organizes, and mobilizes people to advocate for public interests across issues and campaigns. In person, by phone, and online we engage people in actions that protect public health, improve environmental quality, and benefit consumers. Our campaigns connect Ohioans and build a movement to protect democracy and create a sustainable and equitable future. In 2023 we helped win two ballot initiative campaigns (keeping a simple majority to pass citizen led ballot initiatives and enshrining reproductive rights in our constitution), and helped elect a progressive mayor in Akron. In 2024 we knocked 366,894 doors for Sherrod Brown.

* Opposing SB 63 (ban on ranked choice voting) and SB 153 (Ohio's SAVE act, which attacks voter rights and adds to the burden to get citizen-led initiatives on the ballot). * Using our deep canvassing/persuasion training to reach voters who pledged to vote in 2024 after we talked to them at the door, but then didn't. We want to listen and learn in these "front porch focus groups" why people didn't vote, then rework the data they give us to persuade others like them to vote in 2025 and 2026. *Promote repeal of consumer coal plant bailout.

Advocate for local and statewide democracy, energy and consumer issues. We project knocking 709,700 doors statewide and making 259,000 phone calls, plus digital tactics, including voter videos.

* Advocacy work includes opposing two bills, one banning ranked choice voting in Ohio, and the other Ohio's version of the SAVE act which suppresses voter rights and adds to the burden of putting citizen led initiatives on the ballot. * Rural solar organizing uses deep canvassing/persuasion to win hearts and minds for siting utility-scale solar projects. * Voter courtship uses deep canvassing/persuasion to contact people canvassed during the 2024 election who pledged to vote, but didn't. We'll uncover the obstacles, rationales, and stories of unactivated voters and develop messaging to persuade people like them to vote.

Our endorsement committee (made up of students, formerly incarcerated individuals, faith leaders, public school parents, and childcare providers) backed candidates in competitive congressional races, as well as sheriff and prosecutor races. Yet, challenges like lower voter turnout and restrictive voting policies persist, underscoring the need for continued grassroots organizing.

In 2024, we will work to expand the electorate and close the racial and age gap amongst registered voters in Ohio. We plan to register 145,000 voters in Black communities and 35,000 young voters on college campuses, and mobilize them and more by knocking on 1,000,000 doors to reach 250,000 voters.

Formed in 2007, the Ohio Organizing Collaborative (OOC) is a grassroots organization uniting community groups, student associations, and faith organizations with policy institutes and labor unions across Ohio.

#iVoted increases voter turnout by producing record-breaking events & activating entertainment venues to let fans in who show a selfie from outside their polling place or at home with a blank & unmarked ballot.

TurnUp (Turnout Activism Inc.) (c3)

Update this information

TurnUp's youth-led voter registration and turnout program targets competitive states and congressional districts. We conduct paid student-led on-campus voter registration and turnout drives at high schools and low-turnout community college campuses; relational voter registration and turnout programs targeting unregistered and low-propensity young voters; an educational internship program empowering youth to conduct text-banking, phone-banking, and canvassing; and innovative digital activities reminding young people to register and vote. Since 2019, we have registered over 400,000 young voters, texted 35 million young voters, talked to 900,000 young voters via phone, and graduated 13,000 youth from our internship program.

In 2025, TurnUp is focused on registering 170,000 young people to vote in key states and congressional districts for the 2026 elections and beyond. We are also registering and turning out young voters in the VA and PA elections. TurnUp is organizing the following programs to accomplish these goals paid student-led on-campus voter registration and turnout drives at high schools and low-turnout community college campuses; relational voter registration and turnout programs targeting unregistered and low-propensity young voters; an educational internship program empowering youth to conduct text-banking, phone-banking, and canvassing; and digital activities reminding young people to register and vote.

TurnUp's Youth-led GOTV program targets low-turnout community college campuses and low-propensity young voters. The program engages over 18,000 young interns, on-campus organizers, and relational organizers to utilize the following strategies: on-campus GOTV events, relational GOTV campaigns, canvassing, phone-banking, and text-banking.

We’re on a mission to strengthen democracy by increasing high impact youth civic action and closing the gap between young people who want to take civic action and those who actually take action. TurnUp includes five integrated programs that work together to increase youth voter  registration and turnout: the internship training program; online program; on campus and relational voter registration and turnout program; mobile app; and ideas incubator. Our goal is to increase youth voter registration and turnout, and build the most active, educated, organized, and powerful network of young progressive activists across the Nation

We Make Ohio (Group)

Update this information

This election cycle, I want to target residents in two low turnout Canton (OH-13) precincts by registering voters, hopefully knocking on doors during GOTV and mailing letters similar to Vote Forward's encouraging infrequent voters to vote. We'll try to get voters to commit to a voting day and send reminders to them as their voting day approaches.

We Make Ohio is an organization that will highlight how everyday Ohioans are the heroes of our state and federal government, not politicians or the corporations that fund them. Everyday Ohioans are going to demand the funding we need to make our state and our communities whole and deliver on the policies we want to see in our government.
