Ned created the citizens' jury process in 1971 in response to his concerns about moral relativism. He decided to ask a randomly selected group of citizens to reason and consider issues.

They set up the Jefferson Centre in 1974 to work on basic ways to improve the workings of democracy. They ran many citizens’ juries over the years including one to evaluate gubernatorial candidates’ stance on issues in Minnesota in 1990, another to evaluate US Senate candidates in Pennsylvania, and two national citizens’ juries in the US in 1993.
