Advocacy is an activity by an individual or group which aims to influence decisions within political, economic, and social systems and institutions. Advocacy can include many activities that a person or organization undertakes including media campaigns, public speaking, commissioning and publishing research or conducting exit poll or the filing of an amicus brief. Lobbying (often by lobby groups) is a form of advocacy where a direct approach is made to legislators on an issue which plays a significant role in modern politics. Research has started to address how advocacy groups in the United States and Canada[3] are using social media to facilitate civic engagement and collective action.

Ballotpedia's encyclopedic coverage of Influencers includes coverage of movers and shakers in all 50 states and various policy areas. The Influencers project aims to profile the influencers of American politics. Influencers help elect candidates, achieve policy change, create ideological change, and affect popular perception. American politics is incomplete if solely focused on elected officials. In many cases, activists, lobbyists, and philanthropists—working through a range of nonprofit charitable organizations—have championed various sides of a cause for years. The activity of influencers, and their impact, can be felt at the national, state or local level, and even in certain policy sectors.
Our mission is to equalize and elevate coverage of political influencers across the American political spectrum, ensuring that readers have an equal access to neutral and comprehensive information about the influencers of elected officials.
