WASHINGTON, Nov. 4, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- NGP VAN, the leading technology provider for Democratic and progressive campaigns, has released new data and insights highlighting the scale of voter engagement and grassroots organizing efforts during the 2026 midterm elections. The data reveals that campaigns and progressive organizations leveraged NGP VAN’s technology to connect with voters, coordinate volunteers, and organize communities across the country.
Throughout the 2026 election cycle, millions of voter contacts, volunteer signups, and events were generated. Specifically, the data shows that:
- 217.3 million doors were knocked, resulting in 42.8 million successful voter conversations. Canvassing remains the most effective voter contact method, with a 20% success contact rate. - Over 182 million of those knocks were through MiniVAN, powered by 376,000 unique canvassers. More than 60% of these canvassers did two or more shifts. - Nearly 19.7 million event signups were recorded on Mobilize, compared to 12.5 million in the 2024 election cycle, representing 5.3 million unique participants. - 3.6 million first-time Mobilize users and 1.7 million returning participants from previous cycles were involved. - 2.9 million signups were generated through friend invitations. - Over 65,000 volunteer-hosted events generated 5.7 million signups.
For Mobilize, 2026 marked its biggest election cycle to date, with participation surpassing previous presidential and midterm cycles. The growth reflects an expanding network of supporters and volunteers taking an increasingly active role in organizing their communities.
Across the country, this organizing activity supported campaigns competing in critical races at every level of government. From Texas to Georgia to Kansas, NGP VAN-powered campaigns engaged voters and mobilized volunteers in communities nationwide.
The 2026 midterms underscore the importance of grassroots organizing. NGP VAN continues to invest in technology that helps campaigns and progressive organizations build on this momentum. The company is now exploring ways to help the movement use its tools to organize in new ways, with more to share soon. The goal is to help organizers build deeper relationships with voters and secure more sustainable progressive victories all year round.
