Wards are the most basic level of local government - connecting our blocks to citywide politics.
The Wards that Work coalition believes that if our ward leadership is not uplifting politics in the interest of diverse working-class communities, then a piece of our democratic process is broken.
Philadelphians deserve wards that foster grassroots leaders and increase voter turnout through open endorsement processes and transparent elections.

Wards that Work is bringing together Philadelphia’s neighborhoods to build a Democratic Party that fights for all of us. When we act collectively, we're stronger than corporate interests or machine politicians.
Meet our candidates who are running for local offices in West, South, and North Philly. They want a Democratic Party that fights for affordability, quality public education, fully-funded public transit, and against fascists. That’s why they’re running for committee person in their neighborhood wards.
Let's change our city for the better. Vote for a fighter on May 19.

Today, many of us feel that our most basic levels of democracy, transparency, and accountability are broken in America. We feel alone and demobilized.
Wards that Work is a coalition to build the Democratic party we need from the bottom up. We are building wards that demand more for our communities, wards that do the work, that practice solidarity, that are transparent and democratic.
Citywide there’s a 30% vacancy rate for democratic committee person, but we can change that together. We know that working class people joining together is the only way to counter the developers, landlords and rich who rig our political system.
We know real change doesn’t come from above. That’s why we are committed to supporting what it really takes: thousands of ordinary people all over Philadelphia stepping up to organize their communities.

Progressive working people in Philadelphia are coming together in greater numbers to fight for what we all need — affordable housing, safety from persecution and local leaders who stand up against fascism.
Wards That Work has already helped hundreds of Philadelphians just like you get on the ballot for ward committee member, but there are plenty of open seats across the city without anyone running to fill them. Just 10 votes is all it takes for a write-in candidate to be eligible to win the election!
There’s still a little more than a month until the Primary Election Day on May 19 — plenty of time to get involved and help keep the Philadelphia Democratic Party accountable to the people it represents!
