About GoodParty.org: A majority of voters, including more than half of Millennials and Gen Z, say that neither major party represents them. GoodParty.org is the solution. We’re on a mission to make people matter more than money in our democracy by empowering Independent candidates to run, win, and serve. Since 2024, 13,000+ Independent candidates have won their races across all 50 states using our tools, training, and support.
