Folks, have you seen this?

The Pulaski County Election Commission is trying to change the county’s voting process -- including giving the Board of Election Commissioners the sole power to hire the Election Coordinator and restricting the ability of staff to talk to the media.

These changes are designed to make sure Republicans control the county election processes.

There’s a reason we’re seeing these changes to the election processes now. Pulaski County leans Democratic with Hillary Clinton receiving 56 percent of the popular vote in 2016 and it’s also one of the most diverse counties in Arkansas.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: your ability to vote shouldn’t depend on whether you put an ‘R’ or a ‘D’ on your registration. That’s why I’m starting a petition to reject these changes to the Pulaski County election processes and demand the protection of our voting rights. Will you sign on? → [[link removed]]

We’re watching in real time as the GOP tries to stack the deck ahead of the next election. By controlling election processes, you get to control whose vote counts.

Changes like the ones we’re seeing in Pulaski County aren’t being done in the name of democracy -- they’re simply masked efforts to exclude marginalized communities from the electoral process.

I’ve always been a vocal advocate for voting rights because I know that our democracy only works when everyone’s voices are heard. Will you join me in calling for our voting processes to be nonpartisan and add your name below? In times like these, inaction is not an option: [[link removed]]
