John - my stomach is in knots after seeing voters in Georgia, South Carolina, and Nevada wait two, three, even SEVEN HOURS to cast their ballots yesterday.
This is no accident. Election officials failed, particularly in areas with a significant number of Black voters. Vote From Home 2020 is reaching out to these voters to get them signed up to vote-by-mail in November. Please contribute so we can reach more people >> [[link removed]]
Some voters in Fulton and Gwinnett counties waited five hours to cast their ballots. This makes it impossible for working people and families with children to vote. Yes, impossible. We're thinking about these voters in our grassroots fight to make it easier to vote-by-mail.
It’s the perfect storm for Trump to suppress voters in order to win another election. Georgia is a swing state this year and Republican election officials are failing. Can't say I'm surprised.
Yesterday was a test run for November -- and it was terrifying. If we see the same problems this fall, thousands of Americans will be disenfranchised.
Vote From Home 2020 is mobilizing to send mail-in ballot applications directly to voters in swing states. We must make it easier for Americans to vote-by-mail and you can help. Contribute $5 or $10 so we can avoid the mess we saw yesterday. [[link removed]]
There’s a lot of doom and gloom on social media talking about the dire state of our elections after yesterday’s debacles. We must act now to avoid the same mess in November. I’m hopeful we can make it happen.
Thanks for being in this fight.

------------
Vote From Home 2020 is a grassroots movement that's making vote by mail more accessible. With a $25 donation, we'll send vote by mail applications to 20 voters. COVID-19 has brought America to a halt, and with it almost all in-person voter mobilization efforts. While volunteers can’t get on buses to swing states or go door-to-door right now, there is a huge opportunity for progressives, especially in solidly blue states, to get out the vote where it counts. By sending vote by mail ballots to targeted states and following up with text and calls to voters, we can ensure the 2020 general election is safe and accessible. Please forward this email if you know someone who may be interested. Our average gift is just under $25 so consider donating that today to support voting rights.
