Republican Governor Brian Kemp won in 2018 because of extensive voter suppression -- so it's no surprise that he wants to prevent thousands of Georgians, mostly students and people of color, from voting.
New York Times: Georgia plans to purge 300,000 names from its voter rolls
%It's clear -- we need to fight back. So my team and I are going to organize across the district to notify EVERY voter slated to be purged so they can have the opportunity to resist.
Right now, we don't have the money to do that. But a generous donor has agreed to MATCH all contributions to our Get out the Vote Fund so we can start canvassing ASAP.
Rapid response goal: $20,000
Can you pitch in a MATCHED donation today so we can have the resources we need to get on the ground and fight voter suppression? >>

Kemp is counting on the idea that Georgians won't know that they're slated to be removed from the rolls, won't contest the decision, and will go to the ballot box anyway -- meaning that their votes won't count.
It's a dirty trick that will disproportionately hurt people of color and those more likely to vote Democrat.
We NEED to fight back by telling every single person in our county who's about to be thrown off the rolls that they need to fight back -- but we can't do it without you. Can you pitch in a matched donation now? >>>

We need to fight together to protect our sacred democracy.
