Hi John,

In two hours, [ [link removed] ]at 9 am PT / 12 pm ET we will host a brief, insider call
with RepresentUs experts Josh Silver, Co-Founder and CEO, Alex Kaplan, VP
of Policy and Campaigns, and Janice Periquet, VP of Development, for an
update on the election, results, remaining threats, and what it all means.

President Trump made a preemptive declaration of victory and is filing
lawsuits to stop vote counting in states where he’s losing ground, all
while calling for counting to continue in states where he’s gaining. He
continues to allege “voter fraud” where it doesn’t exist, but the election
has been relatively peaceful and calm. It is expected that Joe Biden will
prevail, but he has not declared victory, choosing instead to support the
counting of more votes. Wisconsin will likely have a recount, since the
margin of victory is less than 1%, and we may see recounts in other
states, as well.

We'll discuss all these issues, plus the Senate races and what the various
potential election outcomes mean for democracy reform going forward. One
thing is certain: the past few years have shined a bright light on the
deep dysfunction that plagues American politics, and the utmost importance
of passing sweeping democracy reforms in order to restore integrity,
moderation, and sanity to a system that has gone off the rails.

I hope you’ll join us. The more the merrier… feel free to [ [link removed] ]share this
link with friends and family looking for the latest updates on the
election and the anti-corruption movement.

John —

I’m writing to invite you to a “war room” meeting tomorrow, [ [link removed] ]Thursday at
9 am PT / 12 pm ET to discuss President Trump’s effort to pre-emptively
declare victory before the votes are counted. This is an unprecedented
move by an American president — but fortunately, we’ve been preparing for
it for months.

Tomorrow, we will discuss the handful of scenarios that could unfold — the
remaining states that are counting ballots, the recounts, the courts, how
this will play out, and how we’re making sure that the will of the voters
decides the outcome of this election.

There is some good news: The media is taking a calm approach, playing down
the President’s antics, and so far it is helping keep things steady.
Numerous Republican leaders have denounced the President’s actions.

Tomorrow, we’ll outline key milestones between now and Inauguration Day
(January 20, 2021) and where things could go wrong. We won’t sugarcoat,
and we will be presenting the most need-to-know situational realities and
opportunities to protect and restore our democracy.

The call will be led by Josh Silver, Co-Founder and CEO, Alex Kaplan, VP
of Policy and Campaigns, and Janice Periquet, VP of Development.

This isn’t about partisanship: It’s about protecting our democratic
institutions and making sure votes are counted.

[ [link removed] ]RSVP – Thursday, November 5th at 9 am PT / 12 pm ET – Defend Democracy
Election Update call.

I’ll be in touch with more soon. See below for an update on which
anti-corruption campaigns prevailed last night.

Our movement is simply crushing it in our effort to protect the election.
Thank you for being part of it.

Co-Founder
