When -- not if, when -- Republicans respond to their losses this fall by crying about "voter fraud" and demanding Congress or the courts review the results, we have good lawyers and elected officials ready to push back. But the rest of us need to take a page from 2000 and mock them as sore losers.

North Carolina, this is your reminder to register to vote! They already pulled early voting sites that served college students. Now there's a push to cut the early voting period down to just 10 days. Don't let it work. Register now, or check your status to make sure you're ready for Election Day.
If you’re voting by mail, do it soon!
ACTION ALERT: Becoming a poll worker is one of the most direct things you can do to protect free and fair elections this Nov. It's nonpartisan, it's paid in most states. We've partnered with Power the Polls to make it easy to find opportunities near you. Start here: https://protdem.org/4x56ArP
Poll monitors help ensure voters have access to accurate information when they need it most. When communities have trusted people at the polls helping answer questions and identify issues, voters can focus on making their voices heard. Become a poll monitor. 👉🏿 https://www.powerthepolls.org/bvm
People don't become engaged because someone tells them to vote. They become engaged when they understand how the issues affecting their lives connect to the people making decisions. Help us close those gaps and volunteer: 🔗 https://blackvotersmatterfund.org/volunteer/
Seriously, how does anyone call mail voting “inherently corrupt” in July, then post a video telling Republicans to vote by mail? A third of 2024 ballots came that way. The scare story he sold his own voters just fell apart, and he’s hoping nobody noticed. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption
I'm THRILLED to finally get my hands on this new book on the Voting Rights Act! I've long talked to author @kevintmorris.bsky.social, who is an indefatigable researcher of voting rights and the (worsening) state of democracy in this country. So I know for a fact I'll be learning a ton.
