Democracy South is preparing to kick-off its Inaugural Issue of Voter Contact Magazine. Voter Contact Magazine is a publication designed for people and groups, especially nonprofit/ nonpartisan groups, that plan, organize, manage and fund civic engagement campaigns. Our purpose is to provide our readers with a broad range of information, news, resources and research that will magnify the effectiveness and productivity of voter contact campaigns. [more]

Without question the most stifling obstacle to further progress in growing the electorate is a pervasive lack of adequate civic engagement funding at the local level. To address this problem we are now pursuing two parallel fundraising activity and capacity building programs. First, in behalf of its partners, Democracy South will mount a determined systematic fundraising campaign to acquire funders with the will and capacity to underwrite and sustain the delivery of one of the most costly components of all civic engagement programs—voter data and supporting data services. Concurrently, Democracy South will research, build and implement fundraising capacity building programs for our network partners. [more]

Voter Mapping Services

Our staff at Democracy South comes to civic participation work with an average of seventeen years of experience in the provision of technical redistricting services. GIS based mapping skills and deep knowledge of the uses of Census geographic and demographic data are core competences of our staff.

As a custom service for door-to-door voter registration and/or GOTV campaigns, Democracy South provides “turf” mapping services that since 2000 has delivered tens-of-thousands of walk-list linked voter targeted maps  [more].
