John,

I wanted to update you on some of the important work we're doing for voters across the State.

Yes we're supporting candidates and building the programs and communities that will fuel winning campaigns - but we're also fighting for every voter who wants to cast a meaningful ballot for Democrats. 

Local county election boards are on the front lines for overseeing free and fair elections.

The State Central Committee was recently notified of a vacancy on the Murray County Election Board and we worked quickly to identify a Democrat willing to serve.

Normally county central committees nominate Democratic members and alternatives to local elections every four years. But in unorganized counties, the responsibility falls to the State Central Committee.

It's critical that we nominate Democrats to ensure the county election board carries out their duties in an unbiased and bipartisan way. 

That's why we moved so quickly to ensure everyone in Murray County has a Democratic Board Member looking out for their votes.

And you know what? We've taken it a step further, and are working with the State Election Board to identify current vacancies and prepare for the next round of nominations in April 2027. We'll be here to assist and advise county committees on the process so neighbors around the state can look out for each other. 

Another way local election boards ensure a fair and unbiased voting experience are poll workers. Every polling location is require to have at least one Democrat and one Republican on site. You can learn more about becoming a poll worker here.

This is what mobilized Democrats look like, fighting fiercely to be heard and finding opportunities to serve at all levels. 

We couldn't be more grateful for your partnership in building a better Oklahoma. 

Ilibayya'shki (We're in this together),
