"Time management was huge for me. I have 6 children, and my husband works second shift. From the voter information, the support network in the group, all of your tools, the templates, the easy way that you can send out text messages, for way less than I thought it was going to be… There's just not a better deal out there. Without all of those tools put together, I would not be becoming the first female mayor of my city."

You Don't Need a Party to Fix a Pothole.
More everyday people are stepping up because local government isn't working the way it should.
The system is stuck. Voters aren't.

"All three of the opponents thought they would win because of the political. I chose to just lead with the issues. The canvassing software was really important because I spoke to so many people. Helping them understand and get engaged was important. I wish I had had started much earlier, anybody that I talk to, I'll certainly recommend they jump in with Good Party right away."

How It Works
Step 1:
Build Your Strategy
Set up your dashboard, get your custom campaign strategy, and craft your message. Connect with other Independents who have won inside the Grassroots Community.
Step 2:
Launch Your Campaign
Access your campaign templates, set up your website, plan your launch event, and connect with supporters. Build momentum now with imperfect action.
Step 3:
Run & Win
Grab your voter file, organize volunteers, and track progress. With a targeted talking list, a segmented texting campaign, and strategic events, you’ll focus your efforts for impact and votes.
Step 4:
Govern Better
Look beyond the vocal minority and hear honest feedback from every citizen with simple texting outreach. Ask your residents what matters most and make sure every voice is heard, even the quiet ones.
Real wins. Shoestring budgets.
I'm not trying to be a career politician. I just want to truly help and serve the community and give everybody a voice. And I didn’t take any political donations from anybody. I fully funded my own campaign. I spent less than $500 on the entire campaign. My biggest expenses were my literature that I had made and digital advertising.
Anthony Savage
City Council Amherst, OH
I'm grateful that I won, and I definitely appreciate being able to use you guys in the 9th or 11th hour. That text blast was a game-changer. I wish I had pulled the trigger sooner, because it was hard. I really couldn't have done it without y'all.
Jennifer Hutchinson
School Board Member Rock Hill, SC
I've been putting in work for probably two years now, but you also have to have data. The help from GoodParty.org put me over the edge.

Everyone loves a good party
No 11 p.m. texts asking for $3.
Just weekly emails with practical resources and support for good people doing real work.
We serve people, not parties
We’re not a political party. We just think politics could use more people in it.
Built for local leaders committed to prioritizing people’s voices over corporate dollars.
GoodParty.org makes free and low-cost tools, training, and support to help regular people run competitive campaigns, win their race, and get the job done.
To Use GoodParty.org, You Need To Be:
People-Powered & Anti-Corruption. Fueled by your neighbors and their needs. If your biggest donor is someone’s grandma, you’re in good company.
Civil & Transparent. You care more about solving problems than scoring points.
Independent. An independent, nonpartisan, or third-party candidate or elected official.
You Probably Won’t Like It Here If:
You’re actively running as a Democrat or Republican in a partisan race
You want party endorsements, money, or protection
Mud-slinging is a favorite pastime
Your campaign budget needs its own finance team
"I don't think I honestly could have done all this on my own. I know I would not have won without you guys. I attribute the win to you guys. It was a great experience."

"The text messaging tool was very effective in tapping in with people and reminding them who you are. Staying front of mind was key."
