John, Democrats are facing a 1,400-county crisis — losing ground in these communities in every election since 2016.
The consequences are already here: Republicans now run unopposed in more than half of all partisan races. If this crisis continues, MAGA extremists will cement their power without a fight.
Contest Every Race is the only national program on the ground right now reversing this trend, county by county.
In 2024, we awarded over $1.2 million in grants to 350 local Democratic teams in rural counties and small towns — helping them organize and recruit candidates year-round.
The result?
* More local volunteers
* More anti-MAGA candidates
* More Democratic votes in key states

This year, the demand for our program is bigger than ever:
* 1,200+ local teams applied — nearly one for every county where Democrats are falling behind.
* We accepted 392 teams — a new record.
With hundreds more teams asking for our support, the question isn’t whether the strategy works — it’s whether we can keep up.
Just look at what we helped do in 2024:
* Union County, PA : Local candidate recruitment nearly tripled, and Dems won more votes in 2024 than in 2020.
* Spalding County, GA : Event turnout jumped nearly 8x, and Democratic vote share improved by 2.25% from 2020.
* Manistee County, MI : One of just six counties in the state where Democratic turnout rose for both the Presidential and Senate races from 2020.
There is no other group doing this work in these communities at scale. We can win in places Democrats have been losing — but we need your help.
John, will you pitch in $25 or more to help us reach every county that needs us? [[link removed]]
