For more than two decades, email has been an essential tool for political fundraising and advocacy. Sadly, the vast majority of these messages are missing from the historical record.

We want to change that.


The Archive of Political Emails was established in July 2019. It contains 1,351,418 emails from political candidates, elected officials, PACs, non-profits, NGOs and other entities that shape the political debate.

The text of the emails is fully searchable and senders have been organized by:

  • Political party
  • Country
  • State/locality
  • Public office held or sought

The Archive of Political Emails is a project of the Defending Democracy Together Institute (DDTI). DDTI is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to preserving America’s democratic norms, values, and institutions, and educating the public on conservative principles like rule of law, free trade, and expanding legal immigration. Our Federal Tax ID is 83-1567380.
