The REAL Progressive Candidates Directory of 2021

We help restore American democracy by electing non-corporate candidates. The nationwide “REAL Progressive Candidates Directory” includes Democrats, Greens, and Independents who believe in universal human rights AND reject corporate PAC money.

Find the 2022 Noncorporate National Candidates Nationwide Directory at Friends in DC.

Two REAL-ly Progressive Criteria

Specifically, candidates in the “REAL Progressive Candidates Directory” meet two criteria:

1. Rejection of corporate money now, and in the future. In other words, on principle.
2. Support for a single-payer universal healthcare, like M4A. In other words, not public-option.

Not an Endorsement

Inclusion in the “REAL Progressive Candidates Directory” is NOT an endorsement. When multiple progressive candidates in the same election meet the criteria, they all get in the directory. The directory aims to be an information resource, a discovery tool. Use it to learn more about candidates running for office in your area, and make up your own mind.

There are, however, groups that DO provide endorsements for progressive candidates. You’ll see a list of these organizations at the bottom of the page. A few of them may also endorse “decent Democrats” (i.e., good people, but not progressive enough to be in this directory). Such endorsements may be helpful, if you have no REAL progressive candidates to vote for.

REAL Progressive Candidates, State-by-State

TIP: Use your Ctrl+F keyboard “FIND” function to move about the directory.
