Who We Are

Founded in February 2024 by Dodie Bowman Renfer, Electus Governmental Affairs is a boutique advocacy and strategic advisory firm dedicated to helping clients navigate North Carolina's legislative and regulatory landscape with clarity, credibility, and purpose.  

 

Electus is intentionally small.  We prioritize substance over volume, ensuring every client receives a hands-on partnership, direct access to senior leadership, and strategies designed specifically for their needs.  Our approach is grounded in preparation, relationships, and a clear understanding of how policy is shaped.  Electus is more than a lobbying firm.  We are a firm of advisors, adovocates, and problem-solvers committed to delivering substantial outcomes with long-lasting value.  Every engagement is built on trust and every success is shared.  

 

At Electus, we believe influence is earned, not assumed.  That means doing the work, understanding the landscape, building meaningful relationships, anticipating challenges, and staying engaged when others step back.  Our clients are never "one of many."  They are valued partners, and their priorities are treated as our own.

 

Under the leadership of Dodie Renfer, Electus Governmental Affairs continues to thrive as a trusted partner to organizations, communities, and decision-makers across North Carolina and beyond.  Our work reflects a commitment to strategic guidance, clear communication, and steady advocacy, all of which is critical in advancing our clients' priorities with integrity and achieving positive outcomes with measurable results.

 

Together with our clients, we turn priorities into progress and progress into lasting impact!
