The Civic Filter

Character Before Power.

A nonpartisan public standard that vets candidates through their Self, Close Bonds, and Community before they step onto the civic stage.

The Self

Integrity, discipline, and emotional balance. No public trust without self-governance.

Close Bonds

Family, partners, or chosen circle — leadership proven where trust is most intimate.

Community & Work

Respect among peers and subordinates through fairness and collaboration.

The Civic Stage

Only after the first three filters are passed does one earn access to the ballot.

A ballot that reflects character.

The Civic Filter doesn’t choose leaders — voters do. We simply ensure candidates meet a trustworthy standard before they appear on your ballot.
