Celinda Lake is one of the Democratic Party’s leading political strategists, having served as one of the top two pollsters for the Biden campaign and continuing to work for the DNC. She works for the national party committees and dozens of Democratic incumbents and challengers. Celinda and her firm, Lake Research Partners, are known for cutting-edge research on issues including the economy, health care, the environment, and education, and have worked for several institutions, including the Democratic Attorneys General Association, AFL-CIO, SEIU, NRDC, eco America, NARAL, Planned Parenthood, EMILY’s List, and the Barbara Lee Family Foundation. Her international work has included work in Liberia, Belarus, Ukraine, South Africa, and Central America. During the 1992 election cycle, Celinda oversaw focus group research for the Clinton-Gore campaign. In 2005, she and Kellyanne Conway published What Women Really Want, which examines the ways women are changing the political landscape in America. Celinda is one of the nation’s foremost experts on framing issues for women voters and has elected more women to office than any other firm in the country. Celinda, a native of Montana—born and raised on a ranch—and one of the political world’s most avid whitewater rafters, holds a master’s degree in Political Science and Survey Research from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor and a certificate in Political Science from the University of Geneva in Switzerland. Celinda received her undergraduate degree from Smith College in Massachusetts and was recently awarded the Distinguished Alumna Medal. She received the lifetime achievement award from the American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) with Republican Ed Goeas for her work on the Battleground Poll.
