The midterms are just a year away, and voting in this year’s elections has already started for key races in states like Virginia, New Jersey, and California. It’s imperative that these elections—and every future election—run smoothly. 

Right now, our team is working across the map directly with election officials to strengthen post-election audit procedures that check election outcomes, and advocating for audit legislation in states that are falling short. We’re also ramping up our work with the Election Protection 866-Our-Vote hotline to help ensure that all voters have accurate information and support they need to vote. 

These are just a few of Verified Voting’s priorities. All of us have a role to play in making the guardrails of our democracy strong enough to withstand challenges ahead amidst an onslaught of disinformation, federal overreach, election official harassment, and threats to undermine voter access. This is where your support matters most. Off-election years often generate less revenue for voting nonprofits, and as we enter the fourth quarter, we must maintain full operational capacity to ensure we can continue our vital work advocating for:

The decentralized U.S. electoral system, with power resting in the states, is a key strength. With your continued support, Verified Voting will leverage this strength with our state work in this critical window ahead of the 2026 elections. 

Thanks to a generous donor, all gifts made to Verified Voting right now will be doubled. When we raise $50,000, this supporter will contribute an additional $50,000!

Democracy depends on citizens’ willingness to accept—and, if necessary, defend—valid election outcomes. Our central goal is to have safeguards in place that give the public justified confidence in election outcomes. 

Please consider a gift today. With your donation, you help ensure that every voter has a voice and that every election is secure, transparent, and fair.

With gratitude,

Pamela Smith

President, Verified Voting
