About Us

 

Elect Good People began as a lighthearted movement to raise awareness about down-ballot Democratic candidates—because we believed that good people in local races could make a big difference.

Our early work was fun, cheeky, and optimistic. But in 2025, things aren’t funny anymore.

Democracy is under siege. The threat of Donald Trump and the forces dividing our nation has escalated. What started as a hopeful idea has become a defiant stand.

Elect Good People now stands for Resistance. For Truth. For Democracy.

Our name carries new weight—and our message is louder, bolder, and more urgent than ever. Every shirt, sticker, and statement we create exists to push back against hate, fear, and authoritarianism.

This is our new foundation:

The Elect Good People Pledge of Defiance

I pledge defiance

To Donald Trump,

And to the forces dividing our nation.

And to the Red Hats,

That stand for hate and fear.

I stand with one people,

Of many faiths, colors, and identities,

United,

Fighting for liberty and justice for all.

Join us. Wear your values. Elect good people—and defy the bad ones.
