The mission of Vote Out Incumbents Democracy (VOID) is to inform and organize American voters, who are dissatisfied with the results of their government, to unseat those overseeing that government.

The objective is to drive incumbent's reelection rate down from more than 90% on average, to something closer to a coin's toss chance of 50%.

The goal is to force politicians to earn the anti-incumbent voter's vote through responsible action in government reflecting the best interests of the American people and the nation's future.

The power of the vote is to remove persons from power. Without the vote, those in power will elect to remain in power, without any help from us.

The vote is the power our Constitution provides the people to direct their elected representatives and shape the results of government. A vote for an incumbent seeking reelection is a vote in support of the government that politician has participated in, and results of that participation. A vote against an incumbent, and for a challenger, is a vote for change in government, and the results that came from it.
