Fellow activist,
Earlier this year, we opened our first-ever Bucks County office in Bensalem. We made this choice because, according to the America Votes voter file and U.S. census data (CVAP), as of 2024, in Bucks County, 35.8% of Black, Indigenous, and other communities of color are not registered to vote compared to 4.6% of their white counterparts. This 31.2 gap is higher than the statewide 18-point gap.
This gap highlights a critical issue we face when seeking to deepen our democracy, and a problem that the New Pennsylvania Project and the affiliated New PA Project Education Fund are actively working to address.
As NPP & NPPEF’s CEO, Kadida Kenner, stated to Bucks County Beacon, this was about “meeting people where they are…we want to be where the people are at, and we want to talk to them about getting registered to vote.”
And here was our impact:
According to the Bucks County Courier Times, there was a record-setting turnout on Election Day in Bucks County with Democrats sweeping key races.
Here’s the thing: We opened the Bucks County Office with limited funding. We knew what we had to do to expand PA’s electorate and help our centered communities make their voices heard, and we acted. But we can’t keep this up without your support.
Bucks is, and will continue to be, a swing county, and we need to remain present in the community. Will you help support our Bucks County office so we can engage, educate, and mobilize more Pennsylvanians to make their voices heard by rushing $25 or more today?

With your support, we will continue to conduct year-round voter engagement and civic education in Bucks County into 2026 and work with organizational partners who continue to build power within communities of color, including the Asian Pacific Islander Political Alliance (API-PA) and others.
Together,
Team NPP
