Dear John,
With voting already underway in some states, Trump is pulling out all the stops to undermine our democratic process.
At the debate last week, he doubled down on all of his conspiracies about the election. Without a shred of evidence, he claimed mail-in voting is rife with fraud.
But even the right-wing Heritage Foundation, after examining 36 years of mail-in ballots, found only 1,285 cases of voter fraud out of nearly two billion votes cast — a rate of .0000007 percent.
Trump also refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses, and claimed that “the only way we’re going to lose this election is if the election is rigged.” He’s even threatening to have states that he loses declare the votes invalid and certify their own slate of Trump electors in January.
Never before in the history of our country has a presidential candidate suggested he wouldn’t abide by the results of an election. Never before has a candidate refused to commit to a peaceful transition of power — the hallmark of our democracy.
This alone makes him unfit to serve a second term.
Our latest video breaks down how we can overcome Trump's attempts to undermine the election by handing Joe Biden a blowout victory. [[link removed]]

Here’s what you can do right now to make it happen, at MoveOn.org/ActNow [[link removed]] :
1) Check your registration, and read over your state’s rules and deadlines for voting by mail, and in person.
2) Make a plan to vote. There are many options for how to cast your ballot this year, so make sure you know exactly how and when you’re going to vote.
3) Do your research and make sure you’re informed about the measures and candidates down the ballot.
4) Help your friends and family make a plan to vote, too.
5) If you’re healthy, and feel safe doing so, consider volunteering to be a poll worker. Being a poll worker will help mitigate long lines and keep the in-person voting process running smoothly.
This is our chance to change our nation's terrifying course. We can deliver a resounding defeat to Trump and every single one of his enablers, and stop our slide toward tyranny.
But it's going to take each and every one of us.
Thanks for watching,
Robert Reich
