Revealed: Trump campaign strategy to deter millions of Black Americans from voting in 2016
"3.5 million Black Americans were profiled and categorised as 'Deterrence' by Trump campaign – voters they wanted to stay home on election day" -- Channel 4 News, Sept. 28, 2020
Friend,
You read that right. In 2016, Trump's campaign targeted Black communities to try and stop us from voting.
A team from the infamous British political consulting firm, Cambridge Analytica, targeted millions of Black Americans in 16 key battleground states. What followed was the first fall in Black voter turnout in 20 years.
Now, two former Cambridge Analytica employees are working on Trump's campaign. They could try these dastardly voter suppression tactics again, which means we can't take a single vote for granted.
We launched Vote To Live to register a quarter of a million Black voters and to make sure our voices are heard at the polls — no matter what. Let us know you aren't fooled by these blatant voter suppression tactics: take the pledge to vote.
We won't be silenced. We will be heard. There is too much at stake this November to NOT vote.
So please, join us in pledging to vote right now. It's time to vote this Liar-in-chief OUT.
Collectively, we will win,
