Our Vision
To have wealth, employment and opportunities flowing throughout all communities in Louisiana. Our vision of a thriving Louisiana is one where you cannot distinguish black and minority communities from affluent white communities.
Our Mission
To have the largest voter turnout in history this Nov.3, 2024 election.
To aggressively recruit and unite members across ethnic, racial and party lines moves Louisiana from a red state to a blue state.
To ensure a sustainable movement of educated voters who are committed to ensuring economic prosperity and justice exists in all communities for all of Louisiana citizens.
Historically Louisiana has had low voter turnout due to chronic disappointment with the lack of representation and missed opportunities to resolve needed issues in their local communities from their elected officials.
Vote Smart will do the research, vetting, and interviewing to produce a Candidate Score Card for every election ensuring we elect candidates who will work to resolve our many community issues and needs. When Louisiana Votes Smart we WIN!
Vote Smart Louisiana's mission is to ensure economic development, housing, and employment opportunities are equally distributed amongst all Louisianans. To do this we must empower the African American and minority electorate in Louisiana - more black people will vote if they thoroughly understand and believe in who and what they are voting for.
We monitor, support, advocate, and elect candidates who will ensure liberty, justice and economic advancement to all residents of Louisiana regardless of their race, religion, education level, economic status or where they come from. We seek to replace officials who have demonstrated a pattern of stagnation or opposition to our mission.
We are dedicated to ensuring that every voter has the knowledge and tools needed to make informed decisions and actively participate in the democratic process. Through fostering a deeper understanding of the issues at stake, the candidates running, and the impact of each vote, we aim to increase voter turnout and engagement within our communities.
Through outreach, education, and community partnerships, Vote Smart Louisiana seeks to build a more informed and engaged electorate and thereby a Louisiana that accurately reflects its diverse peoples and way of life. By empowering voters with knowledge and fostering a sense of civic responsibility, we can drive meaningful change and contribute to a stronger, more diverse, and more representative democracy here in Louisiana.
