Dear John,
For those of us who love elections and the democratic process, #GivingTuesday may not be the most important Tuesday of the year. It’s not even the most important day this month. But #GivingTuesday matters, because it reminds us we can’t do this work alone. Supporters like you are the reason we can be there for election officials, in-person and virtually, when they need guidance with post-election audits and other best practices. You help us strike back against disinformation with hard data, and keep expanding our tools and resources.
And now, with the 2020 election finally drawing to a close, we need you more than ever. The decisions that will shape 2022, 2024, and all the elections to follow are happening now. There are voting systems to replace with paper ballots, audit requirements to strengthen, and voters to reach with reliable information.
If every person who reads this today made just a $10 commitment, we’d have enough to keep the Verifier up and running for an entire year. $20, and our audit team can continue to build on the inroads we’ve made in states like Arizona and Wisconsin. $50, and we can turn our attention to the parts of the map still most reliant on paperless voting machines. And that’s just the start - but it all starts with you.
This #GivingTuesday - and every day - we reaffirm our belief that every voter deserves to cast their ballot secure in the knowledge that it will be counted. Join us.
With thanks,
Cris Landa and Mark Lindeman
Interim Co-Directors
