Vote Common Good is an American 501(c)(4) non-profit organization[1] aimed at influencing religiously motivated voters. The group was founded by its executive director, Doug Pagitt.[2]
During a national bus tour leading up to the 2018 midterm elections,[3][4] the group held rallies with progressive candidates.[5][6][7] In 2019 and 2020, the group was focused on encouraging religious voters to oppose the Trump Administration[8] through coordination with groups such as The Lincoln Project.[9]
According to the group's website, they host events in-person, as well as online podcasts and video programs to influence voters. The group also conducts training events for candidates[10] and claims to work with a number of prominent American religious leaders including Brian McLaren, Nadia Bolz-Weber, Shane Claiborne, John Pavlovitz and Diana Butler Bass.[11]
