The Persistence: How Scott Presler Cleaned Up America's Cities, Seized the Voter Registration Movement from Democrats, and Helped to Elect Donald Trump

The story of how Scott Presler seized the voter registration movement from the Democratic Party and helped to elect President Donald J. Trump.

The night before the 2024 election, Donald Trump called Scott Presler. He didn’t call Scott because he’s a famous pundit like Sean Hannity. He didn’t call Scott because he’s a famous athlete like Tom Brady, a famous musician like Kid Rock, or a famous comedian like Theo Von. He called Scott because—in the world of electoral politics—Scott Presler is the guy who gets things done.

This is the story of how Scott Presler got things done in Baltimore, Los Angeles, Chicago, and other cities that have crumbled under Democratic leadership. This is the story of how Scott Presler, quite literally, cleaned up America’s cities. It’s also the story of how Scott founded one of the most influential voter registration organizations in American history, helping Donald Trump to win the Oval Office in 2024.

But this isn’t just a story about the past. It’s a story about the future of the Make America Great Again movement. It’s a story about what Republicans need to do to win in 2026, 2028, and beyond.

Scott Presler is an Eagle Scout, the son of a naval captain, and he started his career as a dog walker. After President Obama’s re-election in 2012, Scott saw America going in the wrong direction and decided to take positive action. Throughout the last decade, he has worked to elect Republicans from city council members to governors and even members of Congress. Now, the founder of Early Vote Action, Scott hopes to continue this work into 2028 and beyond.
