John,

Late yesterday we found out that the city of Portland was going to block
our Repeal RCV signature gatherers from all voting locations today.
After a good-faith effort to work things out, I went and filed in the
Cumberland County Superior Court for a restraining order against the
city of Portland.

Our Repeal RCV circulators have just as much right to be there and give
Portland voters the same opportunity to sign as anywhere else.

And you know what? We won. The court issued a temporary restraining
order against the city to make them allow their own people to sign our
petitions at polling places.

We had to scramble, but we got circulators out at key locations in
Portland.

I'm telling you this for two reasons.

1) This is not easy work. We have to be ready to fight for everything we
get. I am ready, every day, to fight for you.

2) This costs money, and time, and takes a tremendous amount of effort.

It's not every day you have to go to court to prevent a major city
from silencing their own people.

So, after this massively successful effort with signature gatherers at
over 200 locations across Maine, **I want to ask you to help replenish
our funds and help us move on to the next step in the fight to Repeal
RCV.**

Today was the first win in our fight to Repeal RCV but it won't be the
last. I'm ready to fight every day to get this job done and Repeal
RCV.

Please click here right now and donate $10, $25, $50 or more to help us
keep growing.

I would love to end this day with a commitment from hundreds of
supporters to show my team we are on the right track.

Thank you to all of you, the volunteers, drivers, organizers and those
who signed. We are on our way.

Sincerely,

Dr. Demi Kouzounas
Chair
Maine GOP
