Delegate-elect @jess4va.com knocked every door she could in her VA state house district—and the day before Election Day, a conservative voter wrote her a message that they disagreed on every policy, but by showing up to listen, she had earned his vote.

Tommy Vietor admitted what a lot of folks feel: canvassing can feel awkward—showing up at a stranger’s door, not knowing how they’ll react, hoping it’s worth your time.
Ground Truth flips that experience.

With this past election behind us, our work for 2026 kicks into high gear now.
We’re less than a year out from the midterms. Recently, Swing Left volunteers were out knocking doors in swing districts (like Iowa’s 3rd!) to win back the House.

Across swing districts, voters are telling us the same thing: the system isn’t working for them.
Ground Truth volunteers are hearing it firsthand at every door.
On Dec 9, we’re sharing what else those conversations reveal—and why they matter for flipping the House.

During our first Ground Truth canvass, a voter answered the door saying, “I’m a Republican—you’re not going to want to talk to me.”
Us: “Actually, you’re exactly who we want to talk to.”
Listening without lecturing and treating each other like neighbors—that’s Ground Truth.

The best insights don’t come from polls—they come from the front porch.
That’s how Rep. Derek Tran (CA-45) approaches learning from voters & it’s the spirit behind our Ground Truth program. By listening deeply across every neighborhood with Ground Truth, we gain insights no poll could provide.
