Your Feedback for Democrats →

---

Over the past two weeks, our team sent around a feedback form asking supporters what they’d like to see the DNC do and what changes or initiatives they’d like to see us prioritize.

More than 30,000 people took the time to share their feedback. We’ve analyzed the data and compiled the top results — and here’s what we found.

The majority of survey respondents would like the DNC to prioritize:

Communication Strategy

Building a stronger, in-depth, and more visible communication strategy, including sharing more content that emphasizes Democratic values and what the DNC is doing — not just in fighting back against Trump but also on how we’re building our Party for the long-term.

Suggestions included modernizing our media outreach to connect with younger audiences. Additionally, supporters would like to see more targeted outreach, including hearing more from the DNC about opportunities to get involved where you are, and the opportunity to provide more feedback to help strengthen the Democratic Party as a whole.

Investments in Organizing:

Respondents said they would like to see the DNC expand its investments in year-round grassroots and community-based organizing. This is something we’ve already begun at the direction of our new Chair Ken Martin, making investments in the Wisconsin and Florida Democratic coordinated campaigns ahead of their state’s special elections in the coming days.

At the same time, supporters want to be heard, and more than 20,000 survey respondents said they would like to see Democrats host more town halls and listening sessions where Party leaders can hear from voters directly.

Ultimately, the survey shows that respondents want to ensure the Party is listening to voters, and that we are able to reach and engage people well before Election Day. This will help us ensure that voters are bought in on what Democrats are doing, and that they turn out in every county to elect Democrats both locally and nationally.

Messaging:

Survey respondents emphasized that they would like to see Democrats share a clearer message on issues like the economy, rising costs, health care, housing affordability, and tax fairness — ideally, a message that resonates with people all over the country.

Additionally, respondents shared many thoughts on how Democrats communicate, with many suggesting Democrats should share messaging “in a way that everyone can understand and repeat.” Respondents also called on Democrats to do more to fight back against misinformation and to be louder in countering Republican narratives.

Bottom Line:

We are so grateful for your feedback. We’re committed to doing more to effectively reach more voters, clearly communicate the work we are doing, and ensure that voters know we are the Party that shows up for them year-round — not just right before Election Day.

Now, we’re sharing these results with DNC Chair Ken Martin and are actively working on incorporating this feedback into our strategy. We will keep you updated as we take on more efforts like investing in local and statewide elections, holding more town halls across the country, reaching younger voters more effectively, and more.

Thank you,

The Democrats
