All Voting is Local

The maps signed today are another step by Gov. DeSantis and other Florida officials to chip away at Black and Latino voters’ rights. We cannot accept a system in which leaders constantly try to silence voters.  Our statement on the maps: allvotingislocal.org/avl-action/gov…

Even when harmful national proposals don’t become law, they can still inspire copycat bills across the country. Instead of embracing this type of “show your papers” requirements for voters, states should be making it easier for everyone to participate in the process.

“The Supreme Court’s ruling on Louisiana v. Callais takes away some of our most fundamental freedoms: the right to be heard and for all of our votes to be counted equally,” — @HannahKFried tampafp.com/voting-rights-…

Our full statement on the decision: allvotingislocal.org/statements/all…

Today's SCOTUS ruling on Louisiana v. Callais strips Black voters of fair representation and makes it harder for them to shape decisions about the issues that matter the most. Despite this setback, we will continue our mission to build a democracy that invites everyone in.

BREAKING 🚨 The Supreme Court just struck down a fair congressional map in our case Louisiana v. Callais. Today’s decision completely eviscerates the Voting Rights Act, and protections under Section 2. As Justice Kagan stated in her dissent, this decision "renders Section 2 all but a dead letter."

Neither federal law nor any part of the Constitution gives the president the power to change our elections. Despite this legal and constitutional precedent, President Trump has consistently tried to change election rules through executive orders. campaignlegal.org/update/what-ro…

This fall, voters will elect the next chief election officials in 24 states. "The winners of these contests will oversee the 2028 presidential election in an environment in which election administration has become increasingly politicized." votebeat.org/national/2026/…

With the indictment of Southern Poverty Law Center, it’s clear this administration is coming for civil rights organizations. Let’s be clear: this vital work won’t stop because people in power are trying to silence it. We stand in solidarity with SPLC. splcenter.org/beacon-hope-55…

The SAVE Act stalled in the Senate. It’s a major victory in the fight for the freedom to vote. Thank you to everyone who spoke out against what threatened to become the most restrictive voting bill ever passed by Congress.

⚠️ Trump’s DOJ is now demanding 2024 election records from Wayne County, Michigan, Fulton County, Georgia, and Maricopa County, Arizona – three of the most pivotal voting jurisdictions in the U.S. The triple-strike suggests that the administration’s ongoing effort to undermine fair elections is focused on areas — all disproportionately non-white — set to play pivotal roles in upcoming contests. bit.ly/41IECVr

When half of election officials are worried about political interference, something is wrong. Election officials keep our democracy running. Political leaders should be making their jobs easier, not harder.

VIRGINIA: You have a special election TODAY, April 21, about redistricting and YOU have the power to shape what happens with your congressional maps. 🗺️🗳️ ⏰ Polls are open until 7 PM 🪪 Bring at least one form of acceptable ID 📍 Find your polling place WeAll.Vote/virginia

Michigan election officials rightfully rejected these requests, setting a necessary standard for how officials across the country should confront and reject attempts to interfere in our elections. Elections are administered by states, & that duty does not bend to intimidation.

Over the weekend, the Department of Justice requested 2024 election materials from Wayne County, Michigan. This follows the FBI’s raid on a Fulton County, GA election office earlier this year, that was also based on claims that had been repeatedly investigated and debunked.

Our Wisconsin State Director @SamLiebert1985 was in the room for the signing of AB 374, a law that brings WI in line with the federal Electoral Count Reform Act. This was an important step for protecting voters and ensuring a lawful process for certifying electors.

The Constitution is clear: The president has no role in our elections. Any attempt by the president to control who can vote and how elections are run is unconstitutional. More from @thetrevorpotter in @chkbal. chkbal.substack.com/p/there-is-no-…

This is the most important story of the year so far. ProPublica found 75 officials in key election protection roles across federal agencies have been fired, resigned, or reassigned. They've been replaced by two dozen political appointees – 10 tried to reverse Trump's 2020 loss.

We know that election deniers will do any and everything to seize power. That’s why it’s important we continue to call them out.📢 Check out our watchlist of the Top 10 Most Dangerous Election Deniers ⬇️ allvotingislocal.org/press-releases…

The SAVE Act might not make it through Congress, but it’s already done what it set out to do — hand state legislators a blueprint for making it harder for eligible voters to vote. Election officials must push back against these attempts at every turn. votebeat.org/national/2026/…
