    • American democracy needs better, bolder, and more diverse voices to fight for our communities.

       

      Those voices deserve a competitive edge.

    • At Slingshot, we have a commitment to progressive problem solving and principled politics.

       

      We partner with organizations and candidates who share these goals to tackle America’s greatest challenges.

       

      Together, we'll have the tools and energy needed to create the future we deserve.

    • What We Do

      Polling + Data

      We conduct tailored research initiatives for political campaigns, independent expenditures, nonprofits, think tanks, and issue advocacy organizations.

       

      We offer sophisticated multimodal polling, capturing a wide and representative sample while remaining less expensive and more versatile than traditional landline-only polling.

       

      Our services include high-level analysis of polling data and strategic guidance that maximizes what the campaign can do.

      Political Advisory

      We work with candidates, donors, nonprofits, and other groups to develop progressive and inclusive solutions to political problems.

       

      We are project managers and campaign advisors, offering guidance on strategy, communications, fundraising, and more. We also work with donors to coordinate programs and maximize impact.

       

      Our clients bring bold new ideas, and we provide the capabilities and experience needed to realize their vision.

      Slingshot worked as the political advisor to the A1R project, a groundbreaking experiment on polarization and political dialogue. Slingshot assisted the project organizers in recruiting speakers and attracting media coverage.

      Case 3: Progressive Primary Challenges
