PRESENTED BY OUR GENEROUS SPONSORS

ActBlue (web site), the nation’s largest source of funds for Democrats, is a political committee that enables anyone to fundraise online for the Democratic candidates of their choice. By providing technical, financial, and compliance support, ActBlue helps Democrats to make the most of their networks, raising otherwise untapped millions for candidates in the closest races. Launched in 2004, ActBlue has sent tens of millions of dollars to some three thousand Democratic candidates and committees, helping to channel the rising tide of progressive energy to re-establish Democratic power in Congress and across the country. ActBlue is proud to support Netroots Nation.

The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (web site) works to build infrastructure. We organize and maintain winning, state-of-the-art campaign committees across the country through a partnership with legislative leaders, professional staff, and supporters. We provide candidates with access to tools like polling, research, and online fundraising. These resources are often too expensive for state legislative races, so developing an economy of scale and making these services accessible is a huge advantage for our side. With our help, state legislative Democrats have had net gains in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007, and we now control 57 of the nation’s 98 partisan chambers.

The Contact Group (web site) is a leader in providing robust, innovative phone-based services and online multimedia communications – from a broad range of automated phone call solutions and call center agents to virtual town hall meetings and rich, multimedia video messages. We give individuals and organizations, both large and small, the ability to increase their message’s reach and amplify the personal connections fostered through blogs, podcasts and other mediums. Actively engage your audience to harness the progressive power of viral marketing and supporter-generated content. We strive to provide tomorrow’s phone and online communications tools to meet today’s information and message delivery goals.

Living Liberally (web site) is dedicated to creating communities around progressive politics. Through social networks and events, we promote political engagement, and facilitate collaboration among progressive organizations. In your everyday routine and social life, you can be Living Liberally. We believe that our political identity should be part of our regular lives. Too often politics is restricted to one day every four years, or to long, uninviting meetings in fluorescent-lit, linoleum-floored rooms. Instead, we take our politics where we gather, socialize, learn, love and live. We create easy entryways into progressive political involvement, where you can find a community that shares your values.

NGP Software (web site) is the leading provider of campaign technology solutions to Democratic candidates and their allies.

NGP also provides Web design, data integration, and IT consulting services. As a rare example of a partisan firm in a technical niche, NGP has found success in combining technological skills and strong customer service with political savvy and experience.

TeamBlue Politics (web site)is a full-service firm specializing in hard races. We work with candidates on general strategy, communications/media, mail, fundraising, and comprehensive fieldwork. We have experience at every level from Presidential to county commissioner, and have helped pull off some dramatic upsets. Campaigns are like rockets - it takes half of the energy to get the first 10 feet off the ground. Our Campaign Quick Start program is designed to help your new campaign get off to the best start possible. The Dupont Circle Group specializes in grassroots fundraising - helping you find new money and supporters in unexpected places.

She Should Run(tm) is an award winning program of Women’s Campaign Forum (WCF) (web site), designed to gather nominations of women who should consider running for public office. Since 2007, WCF has collected over 2,000 online nominations for the She Should Run(tm) program. WCF is committed to ensuring these women get essential encouragement they need and to providing them connections to key public life decision making tools and campaign resources. She Should Run(tm) nominees are looking to run at all levels of public office from School Board to Congress regardless of political party.
