One of the most important lessons Americans for Prosperity Action learned in 2022 was that voters want better candidates. In order to get better candidates, we must: a) get involved in elections earlier than ever and, b) engage thousands more voters in the primaries.
When we get involved early, we win. In 2022, 82% of candidates backed by AFP or AFP Action won in the general election in November … but only when we had engaged in the primary to make sure the best candidate emerged. When we were NOT engaged at the primary level, our win percentage dropped to 64%.
