Organized money always wins.
Until organized people show up.
A permanent, independent, grassroots organizing group in Maine, run by the people who do the work.
We don't fold in November.
150,000+
Mainers voted for a bold platform
1,000+
volunteer leaders continue to show up
16 counties
with a growing presence in hundreds of towns
… and we’re here to stay
It already works. We proved it during the 2026 Senate race.
On June 9, 2026 more than 150,000 Mainers voted for a bold platform; a new vision for Maine. It was never about one race or one candidate, it was always about the platform. Then, when the ballot line changed hands later that summer, the people didn't go away.
More than a thousand volunteers, from towns in all sixteen counties, wrote to the Democratic party and to every candidate, stating that they would not automatically transfer support to any candidate just because they appeared on the ballot line. All three leading candidates for the United States Senate race agreed to stand at a public forum, in front of the people, and pledged to carry forward that same platform.
This is the whole idea, shown before we had an office, a staff member, or a dollar. Organized people made the powerful people answer to them.
Town by town, this is who's here.
This map is People Powered Maine today. Every shaded town has neighbors who have signed on. Every pin marks a group with a local leader ready to organize.
It runs deepest along the southern coast, and it has not stayed there. There are members and leaders up the coast, inland, into central Maine, and Down East, with new towns turning up every week.
The lighter places on this map are not empty. They are next. If you don't see your town yet, that is your opening. Put it on the map.
Nobody should be able to buy Maine out from under the people who live here.
Private equity owns the housing market. Drug companies own the price of insulin. Fossil fuel money owns the climate rules. Billionaires wrote the tax code. Whoever pays for the politics gets the policy, and Mainers have never been the ones paying.
01
The people who do the work should hold the power.
We don't endorse. We platform. Candidates have real conversations and answer questions from volunteers, not the other way around. Then each volunteer decides for themselves who to organize for. Power gets pushed out to the towns, not up to a headquarters.
02
We don't fold in November.
Every campaign in Maine builds a volunteer network and throws it away the day after Election Day. We are the first one built not to. Trained organizers in every county, working on rent and wages and hospitals in the years when nobody is on the ballot.
03
Two ways in.
Volunteer →
Knock a door, host a thing near you, or just get the weekly note and start small. You already did this once. This is where it becomes permanent, and yours.
Chip in →
We run on small dollars and volunteer time. A little goes straight to materials for a local canvass. Nothing here disappears in November.
