Tell Brian Kemp: Stop Suppressing Georgia Voters!
Georgia’s Secretary of State -- and GOP candidate for Governor -- Brian Kemp is wrongfully holding up 53,000 voter registrations. Every eligible Georgia voter deserves a say -- and this partisan voter suppression scheme is a blatant attack on our rights.
Why is this important?
53,000 eligible Georgia voters may have their rights taken away -- we need to speak out now.
Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp -- who is running for Governor this year -- has crafted yet another partisan voter suppression scheme meant to disenfranchise Black voters in Georgia.
He’s already pushed to close rural polling places, and purged legitimate voters from the rolls. Now, he’s blocking 53,000 new voter registrations from being processed, which means robbing 53,000 mostly Black Georgians of their right to vote in the midterm elections .
Under Kemp’s needlessly strict “exact match” rule (which most states don’t use), if someone moves or gets married and changes their name, their entire registration can be thrown out. These Georgians followed the rules to do their civic duty -- and Kemp is STILL trying to prevent them from exercising their constitutional right to vote.
The right to vote and make our voices heard is fundamental to our democracy. Every eligible voter should have a say in the people and policies that determine the future for their families, community, and country.
We’ve already seen how widespread outrage and activism can make real change in Georgia -- like when our efforts forced the local board of elections to keep each and every polling place in Randolph County open, despite threat of shutdowns. Now, we need a nationwide outcry to tell Brian Kemp -- stop suppressing votes, and let every eligible voter have their say.
