Today’s Action: Fight GOP voter suppression by supporting the Dec. 4 runoff election in Georgia!

There is almost no better way to make positive change than getting out the progressive vote. Republicans have done their absolute worst to tamp down, slow down, and silence voters who would vote them out, and we face an uphill battle undoing the damage they have wrought. But right now in Georgia, we have a chance to make getting out those votes WAY easier.

As Georgia’s Secretary of State, Republican Brian Kemp tossed and lost thousands of ballots in primarily Black districts. And Kemp did it while running for Governor, cheating and scamming his way to victory by silencing those who would have voted against him.

Here’s the silver lining: with Kemp out as Secretary of State, Georgia now faces a runoff election for his replacement on December 4. A Republican will most definitely carry on Kemp’s nefarious practices, but securing a win for Democratic candidate John Barrow could be a game-changer. With GOP voter suppression removed, Black communities could finally get their constitutional voice and Georgia could even go blue in 2020.

The vote is December 4 and it’s incredibly tight. Sign up to make calls, send texts, send postcards, or canvass to Georgia Democrats to Get Out The Vote for Secretary of State candidate John Barrow!

Barrow was a Democrat in the U.S. House for ten years and voted against voter suppression policies such as a required photo I.D.

But the Republican candidate is running a Trump copycat, actively and vocally pushing for stricter and harsher voter list scrubbing — a thinly-veiled attempt to stop people of color, the poor, and the elderly from voting.

Please help the disenfranchised voters of Georgia make their voices heard in this vital election between now and December 4 to elect John Barrow — because it’s only going to get harder for Georgians to make their voices heard without a Democrat in office the next four years.

Sign up to make calls, send texts, send postcards, or canvass to Georgia voters for the Secretary of State runoff election on December 4. Get Out the Vote for Democrat John Barrow!
