Democracy Docket is the leading digital news platform dedicated to information, analysis and opinion about voting rights and elections in the courts.
Founded in 2020, Democracy Docket is the leading digital news and information platform covering voting rights, elections, and the courts — from an unapologetically pro-democracy standpoint.
Tracking election and democracy litigation is central to our mission. But today’s battles over democracy — access to voting, gerrymandering, executive overreach, the rule of law, and more — also play out in Congress, in the administration, and in states around the country. Through our comprehensive coverage, we’re committed to the fight to protect and strengthen U.S. democracy at a time when it faces grave dangers.

Pros: Dedicated leadership committed to protecting voting rights, which is truly inspiring in this non-profit. Great learning opportunities for a Research Analyst from collaborative colleagues and senior staff in the legal advocacy industry.

Pros: It's a great place to learn a lot about voting rights and election law. For anyone starting out in political non-profit work, the exposure to high-profile cases is really valuable, especially for legal journalism roles.
Cons: Career progression is pretty flat once you're past entry-level. There aren't many opportunities to move up internally, which is tough for those of us remote from California. You often have to leave Democracy Docket to get a real promotion or take on more senior election law projects.
Advice to Management: Develop clearer internal pathways for career advancement and invest in skill development for non-management roles to retain talent.
