We’re backing Akbar Ali. Are you with us?
Hi John, I want to tell you about another one of our LWD candidates, someone who gives me real hope for our future: Akbar Ali.

At just 21 years old, Akbar’s already running a small business, organizing in his community, and leading as the First Vice Chair of the Gwinnett County Democratic Party.
Now, he’s stepping up again — running in a special election for the Georgia State House. If he wins, he’ll become the youngest elected official in the Georgia General Assembly.
We need leaders like Akbar in power — not ten years from now, but right now.
Can you split a $5 donation between Akbar Ali and Leaders We Deserve today to help him win?

Akbar isn’t running to build a resume. He’s running to get to work.
He knows what it’s like to grow up in a working family, fighting every day for a better future. He’s been on the ground organizing for public education, lowering costs, and building a Georgia where everyone has a shot.
He shows up. He listens. He makes change. That’s the kind of leadership we should expect from every elected official — and it’s why I’m asking you to support him today.
This special election is coming up fast. We’re trying to raise $15,000 this week to help Akbar reach more voters and keep building momentum. Are you with us?
Pitch in $5 to Akbar Ali and Leaders We Deserve right now.
Thank you for standing with us,
