National Leadership Staff

Wes Jones
Vice President and National Canvass Director
Gainesville, FL

A native of the Atlanta suburbs, Wes cut his political teeth as a college intern with the Georgia Democratic Party in the early 1990's. After graduating from Tulane University, he spent 8 years managing canvasses for issue-based advocacy groups. He helped qualify a campaign finance reform initiative in California, managed the inaugural outreach campaigns of two new state-level environmental groups, and pioneered a "street canvassing" program for Greenpeace USA. Two years of life under the Bush White House were enough to bring him back to the electoral world, where he uses the strategies he developed to build non-profits to help the Democratic Party create a lasting majority and change at the ballot box. Over the last 5 years, Wes' part of the operation has raised $50 million dollars for GCI's partner groups.
