Pamela,
After the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act this year, Republicans thought they could lock in power across the South by redrawing voting maps and breaking up Black communities. But voters fought back. Turnout started surging in majority-Black counties across the South. Races that had previously been written off as “unwinnable” are now clearly competitive — as long as we keep up the fight in this new political battleground. Fair Fight is proud to endorse a new round of Southern Democracy Champions who took on new gerrymanders this year, are ready to win on November 3, and will keep fighting for voting rights and fair maps in Congress:
Angie Nixon
U.S. Senate, Florida Scott Colom
U.S. Senate, Mississippi Jamie Davis
U.S. Senate, Louisiana Chris Harden
U.S. House, Georgia’s 11th District Justin J. Pearson
U.S. House, Tennessee’s 9th District Rep. Shomari Figures
U.S. House, Alabama’s 2nd District Cliff Johnson
U.S. House, Mississippi’s 1st District
If we all do our part for the next 11 days, we can deliver resounding victories for democracy on November 3. Please rush a donation of
$30 or any amount to help elect more Democracy Champions up and down the ballot and fight voter suppression. If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will process automatically:
Electing these candidates is how we build a Democratic Congress that restores voting rights protections and bans partisan gerrymandering. Fair Fight is proud to stand with them.
In addition, right here in Georgia, we’re fighting to re-elect Senator Jon Ossoff, another voting rights champion. And we’ve got a real chance to flip the Georgia State House from red to blue while electing Keisha Lance Bottoms as Governor — allowing our movement to hold the line against anti-democracy attacks at the state level. But we’re counting on grassroots donations to translate into tangible resources that help voters cast their ballots. Every donation can help train more volunteers to get voting information in the hands of more people, generate historic Black turnout across the South, and cut through disinformation narratives attempting to suppress the vote in tight elections. Now we need to work together to harness the righteous anger of the American people, get out the vote, and protect our democracy. Donate now to defend voting rights and fight for free and fair elections. In solidarity, The Fair Fight Team
