Livable Raleigh stands for stronger community engagement with City Council decisions, and much stronger support for affordable housing initiatives. We believe big-money contributions from the development industry give the industry too much control of city policies, sidelining citizens. Our recent poll of Raleigh voters showed that, by strong majorities, they found the city does a poor job of keeping residents informed, is not doing enough to provide affordable housing and is too beholden to developers. Consistent with these positions, we are endorsing the following candidates in the Primary Election:

For Council At-Large*:

Sana Siddiqui,  Josh Bradley

*You may vote for 2

For District C:

Jared Ollison
