John: The situation in Wisconsin is dire:
“You rigged my ******* election, you **** piece of ****. We’re going to try you and we’re going to ****** convict your piece of **** ***, and we’re gonna hang you.”
- Threatening voicemail left to the Wisconsin Election Commission Executive Director
This voicemail sent a shiver down my spine. Election officials of both parties are being relentlessly harassed just for doing their job to protect the state’s fair elections. And it’s all part of a larger plot to force them to resign, so authoritarians can take over and rig Wisconsin’s elections. John, will you help fight back by donating to our campaign to support election officials right now?
I’m with RepresentUs volunteers on the ground in Wisconsin right now launching a campaign to protect our election officials. If they see the community stands with them, they can weather this storm of intimidation.
But we need your help to build organizing power and launch a visible public support campaign for election officials. If we can raise $4,832.24 in 32 hours, we’ll have the resources to hire a month’s worth of organizing help to defend election officials all over Wisconsin.
Will you contribute any amount right now?
It’s going to take support from all over America to save fair elections in Wisconsin. Well-funded authoritarian groups have swarmed into the state with a horrifying agenda:
- Bully election officials into resigning,
- Replace them with extremist candidates,
- Infiltrate the Election Commission,
- Rig elections by rejecting results that don’t advance their agenda, and
- Take this plot to other vulnerable battleground states.
That’s why we have to block authoritarians from getting away with this in Wisconsin. This isn’t just about my state's elections, this is about protecting democracy in every state.
Given the seriousness of this ongoing harassment, we need to start organizing now to generate widespread public support for election officials working to protect fair elections.
Will you step up by pitching in? In just a few days, we’ve already activated dozens of lead volunteers in Wisconsin to generate support for local election officials. With your support, our momentum will be unstoppable:
Together,
Amanda Pustz
