John,
With the election only 3 weeks away, Kari Lake and Blake Masters will say or do anything to win their statewide races in Arizona — including abandoning our founding principles as they amplify Trump’s abhorrent and increasingly dangerous anti-American rhetoric. The current Arizona Governor’s race presents perhaps the starkest choice in our country — between the darkness of one of the most strident extreme-MAGA election deniers, Kari Lake, and the light of former Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs who certified the 2020 election results.
Kari Lake has emerged as Trump’s “leading lady” in Trump’s fictional “Big Steal” Show. If Lake had been Governor, she would have canceled Arizonans’ votes and refused to certify the 2020 election — with no evidence of fraud. Lake is a clear and imminent danger to democracy.

Give this man a subpoena:
On a scale of 1 to 10, Kari Lake is a 13-level threat to democracy.

Don’t let the Nov. 8th vote extinguish the light of democracy. Let’s follow the courageous lead of Sen. Mark Kelly and Sec. of State Katie Hobbs who invite all Arizonans to join in taking back Arizona from the extreme-MAGA cult that wants to lie their way to power. Let’s work to win these elections in Arizona and use that light to rekindle many others flickering across our nation.
What Can I Do to Help Arizona? Below you will find pointers to some meaningful actions with organizations in need of dedicated, democracy-loving volunteers like you — NOW.

As a volunteer with The Union, you’ll receive a national action email each week. Whether you live inside or outside the area for a particular race, there will always be actions for both situations.
Over the next 3 weeks, it all comes down to Arizona and a handful of other states where Pro-Democracy candidates are facing off against Big Lie Election Deniers. We can make a difference in Arizona by electing Mark Kelly and Katie Hobbs. But we will all need to push til all votes are counted to make that happen. Don’t regret sitting back to “wait and see.”
Please forward this email to one friend today, ask them to stand together with us, and get them to join The Union. And follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
Together,
The Union
