What We Do

We take pride in our ability to build compelling narrative, often working with clients to pioneer new ways to think and talk about a subject or candidate.  Some of the stories we’re most proud to tell include:

• Promoting Democratic candidates by building a longitudinal narrative, polling cycle after cycle for the same client to create an evolving message frame that leads to big wins, like picking up and then maintaining a majority in Pennsylvania’s state house over a four cycle arc. 

• Working with clients to refresh and change how we talk about issues like election reform.  Our firm is acknowledged as one of the leading experts on messaging democracy reform, helping to pave the way for passage of meaningful wins at the ballot box for automatic voter registration, ranked choice voting, open primaries, and campaign finance reform.    

• Pioneering research around pro-worker policies such as living wage laws, paid sick leave, family leave, long-term care, and fair scheduling, as well as union organizing and bargaining.   

• We’re experts at making a compelling case to local voters for passing bonds and levies.  Over the course of our firm’s history our polling has directly contributed to passing billions of dollars in local funding for teachers, updated schools, community centers, libraries, public safety, and parks.
