52% of Georgians agree: voter suppression is a problem

Help us hit our October goal and protect voting rights 
 
 
 

Pamela, with only five days left of early voting here in Georgia, and nine days until Election Day, we've got to make every minute count. If anti-voter politicians gain power this election season, there's no doubt that they'll double down on voter suppression tactics for future elections — they'll stop at nothing to create more barriers to the ballot box.

And when our voting rights are under attack, it's harder for us to fight for reproductive rights, affordable housing, or advocate fairly for the changes our communities need to thrive.

So between now and Election Day, we need to continue to turn out the vote, heading to the polls in order to protect our rights and our democracy. You can help Fair Fight mobilize voters in these last few days by making a gift today to help us hit our October fundraising goal and keep this important work going.

We've reached the last week of early voting here in Georgia, and have already seen over 2 million voters cast their ballots — some for the first time, including at least 150,000 newly-registered voters who were not registered in 2020. But even with this exciting, record-breaking turnout, the threat of voter suppressions looms. 52% of Georgians agree that voter suppression is a problem in our state.

Thanks to SB 202, vote-by-mail was heavily impacted this year as we saw drop boxes disappear across our neighborhoods, and the time period for requesting and returning vote-by-mail ballots shortened.

But we've continued to do what we do best: call out bad actors like Governor Brian Kemp, hold anti-voter politicians accountable, help Georgians make their voices heard at the ballot box, and mobilize our grassroots supporters to help us keep our elections free and fair.

Pamela, the average donation we receive to fundraising email like this one is $40. If everyone reading this chipped in $40 (or more!), we'd hit our October goal and have the resources we need to drive voter turnout throughout Election Day.

We can't slow down now — thank you for powering our work.
