I'll get right to it, John. If you haven't heard the news out of North Carolina, an anti-choice extremist running for the state Supreme Court is denying his electoral loss by asking the state to throw out more than 60,000 ballots. Not one, but two recounts have confirmed that pro-choice champion Justice Allison Riggs won this race.
Among the 60,000 ballots being challenged are ballots from Republican and Democrat elected officials, service members, and even Justice Riggs' parents.
There are currently five lawsuits tied up in court about this blatantly anti-democratic attempt by North Carolina conservatives to overturn a free and fair election. Justice Riggs' campaign needs urgent help to keep fighting these legal challenges. Will you split a donation between Justice Allison Riggs and EMILYs List today, so we can help secure this and other victories for pro-choice champions nationwide?

Recounts are a normal part of the electoral process that allows for transparency and promotes public confidence in our electoral systems. Throwing out ballots a candidate doesn't want counted is not.
We won't stand for anti-democracy extremists trying to seize office by circumventing the will of the people. North Carolinians voted to elect a pro-choice leader to the state's highest court. Our job is to make sure that leader has the resources to win in court, too.
Please donate now — your donation will directly support Justice Allison Riggs' legal defense fund and EMILYs List:
