About
Democracy North Carolina (Democracy NC) is a nonpartisan organization that uses organizing, advocacy, and research to protect the right to vote, reduce the influence of big money in politics, and advance fair representation in our state. Its model seeks to build a multi-racial, multi-class civic culture, driven especially by the participation of North Carolinians historically underrepresented in the political process, especially people of color. It also works to achieve specific structural reforms that increase access to the political process. For 25 years, this 501(c)3 nonprofit organization (and its predecessor, Democracy South) has taken on powerful institutions and political leaders, regardless of party, and promoted reforms that expand public involvement in civic life. Democracy NC is a preeminent voting rights organization in its state and region and works closely and in coalition with reform-minded local, state, and national partners.
