Support the Harvard College Democrats: 2026 Battleground Fund

The 2026 map runs through several of our priority states. Maine, New Hampshire, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Iowa, Texas, and Alaska will decide control of the Senate, several governorships, and the direction of this country. The Harvard College Democrats plan to compete in every one of them.

Since 1829, Harvard students have organized under our banner to elect Democrats. Today we stand as one of the largest chapters in the College Democrats of America, the organizing umbrella for more than 300 Harvard students who are trained and ready the moment we set foot on campus for the fall semester.

We proved it in 2024. Our members traveled to every major battleground and worked races down the ballot, helping Democrats win seats in state and local contests across the country. In 2026, we are all hands on deck, and we will arrive with operational partners. In nearly every target state, at least one major College Democrats chapter has already committed to work with us on the ground, co-hosting canvassing trips and plugging our student members into local operations from day one. Those relationships turn each donated dollar into more doors knocked, and more voters reached.

Your donation funds the work directly:

• Co-hosted canvassing trips with in-state chapters across New Hampshire and Maine, including buses, lodging, and meals
• Travel support that puts organizers on the ground in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, and North Carolina
• Phonebank infrastructure, reaching voters in Iowa, Texas, and Alaska

Our goal for November is to defeat Republican candidates in the closest races in America and deliver Democratic majorities. Our students volunteer their hours, and our partner chapters supply the turf. Your gift covers the miles between Cambridge and the voters who decide these races.

Donate today and help 197 years of Harvard Democrats finish the job in 2026.

Democratically Yours
