Working to Forge
 a New Democracy

Through data analysis and activism, Reflective Democracy Campaign tackles the structures giving white men too many seats at the table of political power.

Through research and organizing, the Reflective Democracy Campaign works to make our political structures more inclusive and democratic.

Our Research

Our investigations into the demographics of power expose the enduring problem of white male over-representation, and document the momentum for reflective democracy as women and people of color gain political power at every level of government. Our database is the nation’s only comprehensive resource tracking the race and gender of elected officials at every level of government, including city councils, state legislatures, and Congress.

From in-depth investigations to vibrant infographics, our reports on election demographics and the criminal justice system offer data-driven insights into how race and gender shape government and policing.

Our topics include:

Our Organizing

We are building a movement to reinvent our political system, empowering grassroots community groups to run their own candidates for office, promote policies that center underrepresented people, and reimagine how elections are structured and funded.
