The DOJ just filed lawsuits against 6 states demanding access to voters’ sensitive personal data like addresses, driver’s license numbers, and Social Security info. This is nothing more than a dangerous abuse of power designed to undermine trust in our elections.

allvotingislocal.org/statements/g... We joined local partners to call out the Georgia State Election Board for their decision to subpoena ballots from the 2020 election. This likely unlawful investigation is driven by disinformation and conspiracy theories, and it undermines our democracy.

WI still has 200-year-old law that lets officials randomly throw out ballots when counts don’t match. Our WI State Director Sam Liebert talked to @votebeat.org about how this gut-wrenching practice silences voters. Learn how new legislation could end this practice: www.votebeat.org/wisconsin/20...

All Voting proudly joined a coalition of nearly 600 nonprofits in an open letter calling for an end to threats against nonprofit organizations, political violence, and the escalation of political division. Read the statement below ⬇️

This strategy plays out through what we call "pink lines"—seemingly modest measures that normalize and pave the way for more draconian voting restrictions…this is a crisis in slow motion—and we are watching it play out state-by-state.” time.com/7317625/vote...

On #NationalVoterRegistrationDay, I wrote for @time.com about the surge in state-level attacks on voting: 160+ anti-voter bills were introduced this year alone. These copycat bills aren’t isolated, they build on federal efforts to silence eligible voters. time.com/7317625/vote...

Important warnings and call to action here from my friend @hannahkfried.bsky.social

In honor of National Voter Registration Day, our Executive Director @hannahkfried.bsky.social wrote for TIME about coordinated attempts to restrict voting access nationwide, and how we can push back against these attacks to ensure every voice counts. Read it today: time.com/7317625/vote...

This #NationalVoterRegistrationDay, we’re proud to partner with @goodgoodgoodco.bsky.social and @elevateprize.bsky.social to empower voters to participate in our democracy. The power of democracy lies within the people, & that voice is heard through our elections. Register to vote today 🗳️ vote.org

Our democracy works best when Floridians have the tools to be voter-ready and can share decision-making power. Voters get to pick our leaders, but to do so, they must participate in the process. Celebrate #FloridaVoterRegistrationWeek🗳️ and register today ⤵️ registertovoteflorida.gov/home

Disabled voters live in every community and every county – they deserve equal access to vote conveniently. ✅ Accessible polling places ✅ Early voting & mail-in ballots ✅ Braille ballots ✅ Accessible voting devices These are essential for ensuring all voters can make their voices heard.

“Equally concerning is the possibility that the D.O.J. will use the data inappropriately and the fact that the D.O.J. does not appear to have complied with the necessary legal requirements to obtain or use data on several million people.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/09/u...

The volume of threats to our democracy can feel overwhelming. That’s not an accident. It’s part of a strategy: if people stop believing their vote counts, they’re less likely to show up. And that’s exactly what anti-democracy forces want, but we won't give into them.

Accurate voter rolls matter, but not at the expense of eligible voters. WI’s removal of 192k names risks disenfranchising renters, students, low-income voters & communities of color. Protecting access requires transparency, notice, and time. isthmus.com/news/news/wh...

The federal government is meddling with voter lists again, and it has become significantly more sophisticated with its playbook strategies to attack our democracy and silence voters ahead of 2026 midterm elections. Here’s what you need to know ⤵️ allvotingislocal.org/blog/cause-f...

"President Trump says he wants to end mail-in voting, but voting by mail is already widespread throughout the United States, and he lacks the authority to end a practice that is left up to states to decide." In 2024, nearly 30% of voters used a mail-in ballot. www.usatoday.com/story/graphi...

Federal interference in our elections is setting the stage to silence voters in 2026 and beyond. New changes to the SAVE system are booting eligible voters off the voter rolls, fueling false claims, and laying the groundwork for mass voter challenges. Read our new blog for more: bit.ly/4mCqgPh

Florida's new state ID issue shows how voters can get caught in the crossfire of policy. Even well-intentioned measures can deepen the impact of anti-voter laws. 🧵⬇️ floridaphoenix.com/2025/08/22/f...

The data shows what we've always known: accessible voting is popular, and most Americans want to have more convenient ways to vote. We should be focusing on expanding voting access, not implementing policies that make it harder to vote. www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...

@bartongellman.bsky.social in @nytopinion.nytimes.com: “There are reasons to hope Mr. Trump will fail to subvert next year’s midterms. Election officials of both parties have by and large withstood years of relentless threats, violence and disinformation.”

Voting rights are under attack, and the fight to protect them starts locally. Election officials know their communities best and are integral to protecting our democracy. 🔗 to full podcast: youtu.be/JzdVehs0xfw

📩 Mail voting is safe, secure and: ✔ Used in every state ✔ Protected by overlapping security systems ✔ Popular with Americans across parties Get the facts ⬇️

Here are the facts: voting machines undergo extensive testing before each election to guarantee reliability and accuracy, and eliminating mail-in voting would strip away a reliable and safe method that millions rely on. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

🎙️ Our Executive Director @hannahkfried.bsky.social joined Justice by Design podcast to talk about the fight for voting rights – and why protecting democracy starts locally. Tune in to learn about what's at stake and how you can be an advocate for your community. ⤵️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzdV...

Last week, All Voting is Local Florida joined partners and community advocates for a night of food, music, and joyful solidarity in Orlando to mark the 60th anniversary of the #VotingRightsAct. Thank you to everyone who showed up to fight for every voter's access to the ballot🗳️

"Ultimately, we’re in an era where the burden of protecting democracy is falling on individuals. That’s not how it should be. Voting is a right, not a privilege or a test of endurance." More from @slate.com on emerging lack of protection for voters in court⤵️ slate.com/news-and-pol...

Every voter deserves to see themselves reflected in our electoral process—including having people at their polling place who look like them and speak their language. This #PollWorkerRecruitmentDay, help ensure fair and equal access to the polls by signing up as a poll worker.

"Once the govt. crosses the line into sweeping, unexplained grabs for voter data and more, it’s hard to walk it back. If states cave to these requests without demanding a clear legal foundation, they are inviting future administrations to make more such requests." www.votebeat.org/2025/08/11/j...

A new threat to fair elections has emerged: the federal government itself. bit.ly/46ETsQp

As we mark 60 years since the Voting Rights Act, anti-voter threats are ramping up—from new ID laws to federal overreach. These are coordinated efforts to restrict access to the ballot, especially for voters of color. The #VRA was just the start. We’re still fighting for an inclusive democracy.

The redistricting fight in Texas isn’t just about political lines – it’s about whether Black voters and other historically excluded communities will have a fair chance at representation. Every state must ensure its maps reflect the people, not partisan power plays. www.votebeat.org/2025/08/04/t...

The threats to our democracy are growing. This year, we’ve seen: 🗳️ Attempts to restrict voting access 🏢 Pressure on election officials who uphold the process 🚨 Support for individuals who spread distrust in elections 📢A step back from federal voting rights protections

"They’ve also raised concerns about how the federal government is using data uploaded by states, and whether using the tool outside its intended purpose could put people’ privacy or voting rights at risk." www.votebeat.org/2025/07/28/s...

High voter registration should be celebrated, not scrutinized. States shouldn't be targeted for successfully engaging residents in the democratic process.

DOJ officials recently requested sensitive voter data from Wisconsin – but sent the request to an official who doesn't even run elections. It's hard to trust how this voter data will be used when it's already being mishandled for anti-voter agendas. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Nevada's elections are changing in 2026. During a new podcast, our very own Nevada State Director Kerry Durmick breaks down new sample ballot changes, bipartisan initiatives that will make voting easier, and more changes voters should be aware of. Tune in🎧 www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7sK...

Federal overreach into election administration, which is each individual state's authority, is becoming more widespread. We strongly support election officials' commitment to protecting voters and upholding their responsibility to lead fair elections. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

A federal appeals court blocked a Wisconsin town from banning electronic machines, because it would have disenfranchised voters with disabilities. We agree with the court: accessibility for voters is not optional. We must ensure voting works for everyone. www.votebeat.org/wisconsin/20...

Today marks 5 years since the passing of John Lewis — a fearless champion for voting rights. We honor him by doing what he taught us: making good trouble for what’s right. Join us. Let’s carry the torch and show the world that #GoodTroubleLivesOn.

We're proud to stand in solidarity with 600 nonprofit orgs to speak out against efforts from members of Congress to slam nonprofits they disagree with. These attacks are a dangerous violation of fundamental American freedoms. cfce73f5-6016-42c8-9343-fa96f8863f56.usrfiles.com/ugd/cfce73_7...

ICYMI: a federal court has temporarily blocked a new part of a state law that would have made it harder for residents to put citizen-led initiatives on the ballot. Ballot initiatives are a powerful tool for voters to have a direct say in state law. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Today is primary day in Arizona's 7th district! If you run into any problems at the polls, Arizona Election Protection is here to help. Call the hotline at 866-687-8683 if you or anyone you know runs into any problems at the polls. Happy voting day🗳️ my.arizona.vote/WhereToVote....

Task Force Member and @allvotingislocal.bsky.social Executive Director @hannahkfried.bsky.social ‬ was recently featured in Season 2 of @elevateprize.bsky.social’s Nevertheless docuseries. This season highlights leaders who protect democracy and empower change.

A Georgia appeals court reaffirmed that election officials must certify election results on time – no exceptions. This ruling upholds a core principle of our democracy: the will of voters cannot be delayed or denied. There’s no place for partisan interference in our elections. bit.ly/3Gd6FFq

Arabic is the 3rd most spoken language in Michigan – but there’s no state or federal law requiring ballots to be translated into Arabic. This means thousands of voters are denied the language access they need to fully participate in our democracy. www.votebeat.org/michigan/202...

President Trump's executive order is a sweeping attempt to seize control of our elections and silence voters – especially Black, Brown, young, and disabled voices. Protecting the sanctity of our elections means resisting this dangerous overreach and defending ballot access. bit.ly/4kjwSzW

"For our system of checks and balances to operate well, courts must be able to protect the rule of law from those who seek to undermine it, even the president." campaignlegal.org/update/us-su...

Former Justice Kennedy is right: democracy and freedom are at risk. Disinformation about our elections and attacks on judges aren't political problems, they're threats to our democracy as a whole. We remain committed to defending our democratic process. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Admittedly, cities in Wisconsin adopting electronic pollbooks may not be the most exciting thing you've heard this week but it's critical to making elections more accessible & fair. Read more from my @allvotingislocal.bsky.social colleague @samliebert.bsky.social madison.com/opinion/lett...

The U.S. Supreme Court surprisingly declined Friday to resolve a yearslong saga over voting rights and alleged racial gerrymandering, ordering new arguments over Louisiana's controversial congressional districts. www.law360.com/artic...
