About Georgia Matters

About Georgia Matters

Built for Georgia. Focused on the Primary.

Georgia Matters is a nonpartisan coalition of Georgia leaders working to increase participation in the primary and primary runoff — through trusted institutions, everyday people, and the networks that already exist.

Georgians coming together

Civic participation feels harder than ever. Georgia Matters makes it simple. We bring together businesses, faith communities, nonprofits, and community organizations across Georgia who believe that informed participation is essential to a healthy democracy and a strong state.

Rather than working in isolation, our partners coordinate efforts, share resources, and reinforce one another — so that Georgians receive clear, reliable, nonpartisan information where they already live, work, and worship.

Georgia Matters focuses on the elections that matter most and receive the least attention. Georgia primary elections determine who appears on the November ballot for most offices, yet turnout is consistently low. When only a small share of voters participate, decisions reflect the few rather than the many. Our coalition exists to change that.

How we operate

Our principles.

These commitments ensure Georgia Matters remains credible, accessible, and effective across Georgia.

01

Georgia focused

Every resource, toolkit, and message is designed specifically for Georgia voters, Georgia communities, and Georgia primary elections. Every link goes to an official Georgia source.

02

Nonpartisan by design

Georgia Matters takes no position on parties, candidates, or policy issues. Our singular goal is to increase awareness and participation in the primary and primary runoff. We don't take sides. Ever.

03

No candidate endorsements

We will never endorse, promote, or oppose any candidate running for office. This ensures our partners can confidently share our resources without concern.

04

Free and easy to use

All Georgia Matters materials are freely available. The toolkit costs nothing. We just ask that you share it with the people who trust you.
