National Committee for an Effective Congress

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Founded by Eleanor Roosevelt in 1948, the National Committee for an Effective Congress (or NCEC for short) is a political committee that provides voter-research resources to progressive political campaigns throughout the United States. The NCEC is vital to campaigns of all sizes due to its role in providing a "voter file" for campaign activities that require identification of voters in target demographics.

NCEC provides targeting information from the precinct to the state level. This includes party turnout, census data, racial breakdown, estimates of swing voters and voter turnout and many other pieces of data. This is traditionally used by many campaigns for targeting volunteer and paid Canvass efforts, as well as mail and phone programs.
