John,

In 2020, 2022, and 2024 – despite a pandemic, death threats to officials, and constant misinformation – our elections held.

But we’re not exaggerating when we say this time is different.

Now empowered by an administration filled with election deniers, the threat to free and fair elections is coming directly from the federal government.

[link removed] [[link removed]] The Trump Administration’s Campaign to Undermine the Next Election

Trump has launched a coordinated campaign to undermine the 2026 elections. His administration is rewriting election rules, threatening election officials, and pardoning those who tried to overturn the 2020 results.

And unlike last time, the internal checks that stopped him – the DOJ, career civil servants, nonpartisan election leaders – are gone.

He’s clearing the runway to try again. And this fight will come down to the people who actually run our elections – the Secretaries of State on the front lines of our democracy.

Because while Trump and his allies rewrite rules from the top, it’s state-level leaders who will ensure every vote is counted, and certify the results.

At DASS, we’re fighting to elect and support Democratic Secretaries of State in battleground states across the country – but we can’t do it without you. So please, can you chip in $3 today? [[link removed]]
