Ready to make progress on the issues you care about? Let's protect democracy and build Democratic majorities together.
Ground Truth is built on that simple idea: people notice when you take the time to listen.

This is how we rebuild trust heading into 2026.
Tommy Vietor admitted what a lot of folks feel: canvassing can feel awkward—showing up at a stranger’s door, not knowing how they’ll react, hoping it’s worth your time.
Ground Truth flips that experience.
“Winning power is about math, and we have to win majorities. We need to be more ruthlessly pragmatic than we ever have been.” – Yasmin Radjy, Swing Left Executive Director
This is the moment to ensure our collective action makes the biggest difference possible.
With this past election behind us, our work for 2026 kicks into high gear now.
We’re less than a year out from the midterms. Recently, Swing Left volunteers were out knocking doors in swing districts (like Iowa’s 3rd!) to win back the House.
Across swing districts, voters are telling us the same thing: the system isn’t working for them.
Ground Truth volunteers are hearing it firsthand at every door.
On Dec 9, we’re sharing what else those conversations reveal—and why they matter for flipping the House.
On our ‘Inside Ground Truth’ national strategy call, we’ll share what we’ve learned so far from our Ground Truth pilot canvasses:
✅ What kind of data we collected
✅ How we’re expanding this work
✅ How these insights will shape 2026 and beyond

Ground Truth provides a new way to listen, learn, and engage voters to help Democrats win elections.

“Upstate New York has a deep tradition of folks looking out for one another—and that’s exactly what Ground Truth is all about.”

During our first Ground Truth canvass, a voter answered the door saying, “I’m a Republican—you’re not going to want to talk to me.”
Us: “Actually, you’re exactly who we want to talk to.”
Listening without lecturing and treating each other like neighbors—that’s Ground Truth.
The best insights don’t come from polls—they come from the front porch.
That’s how Rep. Derek Tran (CA-45) approaches learning from voters & it’s the spirit behind our Ground Truth program. By listening deeply across every neighborhood with Ground Truth, we gain insights no poll could provide.

BREAKING: We’re expanding Ground Truth nationwide—an innovative initiative to transform how Democrats connect with voters.
It’s how we rebuild trust & win in 2026 & beyond. We’re starting earlier, knocking every door in swing districts, & gathering rich data we’re sharing directly with campaigns.
We can’t expect a blue wave to happen on its own—we’ve got to make it happen. That starts with listening to voters now, not next fall.
Join us at ourgroundtruth.org
That’s why reimagining voter outreach is so important. With our Ground Truth canvassing initiative, we’ve started early, listening deeply to voters, and laying the foundation not only for success next year, but in 2028 and beyond.
