Friend—
I want to make sure you saw this email. We are just four days from the most important election of our lifetime. Lawsuits are being fought across the country to throw out tens of thousands of ballots, and voter suppression is rampant. We MUST get the word out to as many voters as possible so they can protect their ballots.
We need your help now. Will you donate to help meet our Fall Fundraising Drive goal of $80,000 by Election Day?

Friend,
This is not a normal election of Republicans or Democrats.
It's a state of emergency—a battle between democracy and authoritarianism.
We have a president using all the powers of his office to undermine the integrity of the election and suppress the vote in the middle of a deadly pandemic. But the corporate media and cable TV continue to treat this as just another election, fixating on the horse race of who's up and who's down in the polls.
That's exactly what Donald Trump is counting on—and why he's gotten away with his attacks on democracy for so long.
Common Dreams is one of the only nonprofit, progressive news sources with the independence to take sides—we're not for one party or another, but rather on the side of free and fair democracy.
Every day between now and the election—and beyond—we will fight back against Trump's voter suppression and the corporate forces behind him by shining a bright light on their abuses, and by connecting our readers to protest movements and organizations fighting back.
We can only do this work with your support. Will you donate to help meet our Fall Fundraising Drive goal of $80,000 by Election Day?
