North Dakota Rural Voters is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to the future of North Dakota by helping to elect candidates who will fight for us, and not just the wealthy and well connected. We are facing multiple crises including unfair prices for farmers and ranchers, loss of landowner rights, abandonment of oil wells, dirty air and water brought on by rampant corporate greed, and foolish attempts to weaken the anti-corporate farming law.
Our rural quality of life is under attack but we believe there is a path to victory to bring a sensible voice back to rural North Dakota. We need leaders who will protect family farms and ranches, ensure clean air and water, and fight for small businesses.
Across the state, rural families are banding together with the North Dakota Rural Voters to amplify their voices and build power with hard-working, grassroots families like yours.
Your life is impacted daily by the people we elect. Now more than ever, we need to make strong strategic gains while holding our ground and supporting elected officials who will go to bat for our issues.
- We make sure everyone has the opportunity to cast a ballot and to engage in our democracy.
- We educate rural voters about the policies being debated by elected officials that directly affect their livelihood and the legacy they want to leave behind.
- We give rural leaders the tools they need to stand up in their communities, voice their concerns, and effect change.
- We elect candidates who support rural North Dakota values.

North Dakota Rural Voters is a member of the Western Organization of Resource Councils Grassroots Democracy Program, which is the 501c4 political arm of WORC. The Grassroots Democracy Program is a regional coalition of rural vote programs and Native vote organizations that work together to elect candidates that will champion our issues and support rural, Indigenous, and people of color communities. We do this by identifying and training our member leaders to run for office, holding elected officials accountable throughout the year, and passing smart public policy to advance our issues at the state, local, and federal level.
