The democracyFIRST Promise is common sense, and voters understand that. Extremists reject it at their own peril. We've seen election deniers across the country lose a lot since 2020, but we're not done beating them yet!
Really excited to be helping out with this effort.
NEW POLL: In addition to adding 27 county-wide candidates to the democracyFIRST Promise today, we released new polling from PA that found:
👉75% of voters (& 74% of independents) "could never support a candidate" who didn't agree to the principles outlined in the Promise.
👉54% of voters are "very concerned" about the potential efforts by politicians to stop election certification process.

“I expect 2024 to be a pretty good year for polling,” said Ethan Smith, founder of the newly launched Upswing Research & Strategy.
In previous cycles when the former president ran, pollsters had trouble getting responses from Trump supporters. Researchers have pointed to a variety of reasons for that low- or non-response rate.
