US : Help us FIGHT VOTER INTIMIDATION and VOTER SUPPRESSION.

 

 

 

Help us fight voter intimidation and voter suppression   Dear friend,   Remember when Donald Trump threatened to send an “army” of poll watchers to voting places, in an echo of Jim Crow-era intimidation tactics ? That army never materialized -- but now officials in Texas are looking to make good on the threat, and other states may not be far behind. Sweeping voter suppression legislation passed by the Texas Senate would “allow partisan poll watchers to record voters who receive help filling out their ballots.” One Texas GOP official even said those poll watchers must have the “courage” and “confidence” to monitor election sites in Black and Latinx communities. Dear friend, courts have found that poll watchers intimidate people of color and work to exclude them from voting. This is just another brazen attempt by Republicans to limit the franchise to their preferred voters so they can extend their minority rule. At the NDRC, we’re working to stop voter suppression and intimidation tactics in states across the country and pass federal legislation to protect the right to vote. Will you pitch in to help us get it done ?         If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately : Donate $10 Donate $20 Donate $50 Donate $100 Donate $150 Another amount   Team NDRC.   DONATE   Since 2017, the NDRC has executed a comprehensive redistricting strategy that shifts the redistricting power, creating fair districts where Democrats can compete.
