To: Rep. John Lewis (GA-5)
Support the will of the voters
We, the constituents of Georgia's 5th congressional district, and all Georgians, ask that our elected congressional representative, John Lewis, and all other superdelegates, reconsider their intent to pledge their 2016 superdelegate votes to Hillary Clinton and vote in accordance to the will and voice of voters.
Why is this important?
We would like to see Representative John Lewis, as a long-standing progressive champion of democracy in Congress, use his unpledged delegate or "superdelegate" vote to reflect the rights he fought for and sacrificed to gain, has defended and protected—along with continuing to represent the values of the Democratic party—by not supporting a candidate before all of his constituents have had their say at the voting booth. We urge him to lead other Georgia superdelegates in committing to honor the vote of the people.
