Our Democracy Is Not Negotiable. Sign the Principles.

Constituents vote free from intimidation. Their ballots are counted. Winners take office. These are not complicated demands - they are the floor of democratic life. And right now, that floor is being tested in ways that should concern everyone who cares about the integrity of the process.

The NALEO Board Officers have put seven elections principles in writing - across party lines, across levels of government - as a standard that does not bend to the calendar, the party in power, or the stakes of any single race. They apply to this election, the next one, and every one after. We're asking leaders and stakeholders everywhere to stand with us.
