While Donald Trump headlines 2026, the danger to our democracy runs far deeper - down to the state and local offices that oversee and administer our elections. Republicans know the power of financing downballot races and continue to invest in every level of the ballot because they understand national elections are administered at the local level. We cannot cede this ground. State + Local Election Alliance (SLEA) serves to counter anti-democratic efforts by focusing solely on these critical non-federal offices that are often overlooked in favor of the top-of-the-ticket federal races.
From Governors to Secretaries of State to state legislators to State Supreme Court Justices to local elections officials, the mechanics of our democracy are administered in the states, and now this fight must be won in the states.
By investing in and winning state + local races, we have a long-term answer to secure democracy and a way to move past crisis politics where democratic norms and rules hang in the balance every cycle.
Join us in our effort and donate now.
