THEN: Gerrymandered Republican majorities in both states blocked nonpartisan attempts to allow ballots to begin processing before Election Day -- a practice allowed in 40 other states.
NOW: Delayed results in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, caused by these gerrymandered majorities, gave the president an opportunity to erroneously, frustratingly, and even dangerously claim victory on Election Night before all the votes were counted.
In fact, gerrymandered majorities are the source of much of the widespread voter suppression we've seen in 2020 -- from Wisconsin to Texas.
The All On The Line grassroots movement is fighting to end gerrymandering because we want to end this kind of destruction to our elections and our democracy. Add your name if you want 2020 to be the last elections that occur with widespread, court-sanctioned voter suppression.
Author of "Unrigged" David Daley reported on the direct line between gerrymandering and obstructing accurate election results, calling it a "cynical scheme that should horrify all Americans who believe in representative democracy."
If we want to restore our democracy, safeguard our elections, and protect the vote for all elections moving forward -- we must end map manipulation during the redistricting process.
Stand in solidarity with us, friend and commit to protecting our democracy. Add your name to call for an end to map manipulation that allows gerrymandered majorities to restrict voting and meddle in ballot-counting.
