Case Study: Women’s Equality Party achieves national prominence and 250,000+ votes in London mayoral race with NationBuilder

Women’s Equality Party strides toward national stage

The Women’s Equality Party came to NationBuilder in 2015 seeking to grow from an emerging coalition into a national political force and to “establish their footprint on their own terms.” Facing the challenge of organizing a new, collaborative party and engaging supporters across genders, ages and communities, they needed a platform to coordinate local activists and run a high-profile campaign around Sophie Walker’s 2016 London mayoral bid.

NationBuilder provided the organizing and campaign platform that helped the Women’s Equality Party coordinate grassroots input, engage diverse supporters, and run Sophie Walker’s mayoral campaign. The result: WEP surged onto the national stage, winning over 250,000 votes—one vote in every 20 in the race—demonstrating NationBuilder’s impact in turning an emerging movement into a measurable political force.
