We Compete is a Political Action Committee (PAC) founded on the principle of empowering Democratic down-ballot candidates, aiming to revolutionize the way campaigns are run in overlooked areas.
Established in response to the apparent neglect by both national and state Democratic leadership, We Compete seeks to fill the void left in regions and communities that have been marginalized for far too long. At the helm of this transformative initiative is Kyle Parrish, whose own candidacy for the U.S. Congress in North Carolina in 2022 laid bare the acute shortage of support and resources available to candidates like himself. Frustrated but undeterred by the lack of attention and assistance from the Democratic establishment, Parrish turned his experience into a catalyst for change. Through We Compete, he is passionately dedicated to reshaping the political terrain, offering scalable campaign solutions and invaluable support to the “down-ballot scrappers” — those determined candidates fighting to make their voices heard in areas where they have historically been ignored.
