Whether you’re brand new to organizing or already plugged in, this training will show you how powerful relational organizing can be when we all use the connections we already have. The strongest movements are built person-to-person, and that starts with us.

Join the Columbia County Dems for a relational outreach workshop! You'll learn how talking with friends, family, and neighbors can help make a real difference in our community. Bring a friend or two and join us as we work together to drive change in Columbia County this November.

When election districts are drawn to give one political party an advantage, the practice is known as gerrymandering. In Wisconsin, advocates for “fair maps” argue that gerrymandering has distorted representation and made it harder for voters to hold elected officials accountable. The Wisconsin Fair Maps Coalition says its long-term answer is to change who draws the maps in the first place.

A plain-language summary of an update from Wisconsin Fair Maps Coalition volunteer organizer Nicole Gabrail on the coalition’s plan for an Independent Redistricting Commission (IRC) to bust up gerrymandered districts in Wisconsin. Article and video derived from her March 14, 2026 presentation at t...

What was originally supposed to be one piece in the Watertown High School Wind Symphony’s spring concert became something much bigger: A community statement about art, inclusion, and the refusal to let fear-driven politics silence students’ work.

Weekend of action, Columbus! We were out today and had some great conversations with folks we met. That is the best part of canvassing. A gal who works for a non-profit, they are operating on a shoestring budget. Another who is concerned about affordable healthcare. Folks who want stronger public schools. Local issues, State issues, and lots of connections. People are eager to have their voices heard. Canvassing wins elections. Think you can't? Yes you can! Team up. You do not have to go it alone. We are out now, but will need even more folks willing to canvas for the fall election.

At a recent meeting, Nick Oestreich, Regional Organizing Coordinator from WisDems laid out a clear challenge for all of us: if we want to win, we have to get better at talking with, and listening to, people who are still reachable. Take a look at his suggestions in our blog.

At a recent meeting with a small group of CoCo Dem members, Nick Oestreich, Regional Organizing Coordinator from the Democratic Party of Wisconsin laid out a clear challenge for all of us: if we want to win, we have to get better at talking with people who are still reachable.
