| | | | Together, we’ve been doing all we can to educate and mobilize working family voters. Unfortunately, that’s not enough. We also have to make sure every vote counts. None of us will forget the heartbreak of stolen elections in 2000 and 2004. And none of us should think for a minute that voting suppression is behind us. Several states—and even the U.S. House of Representatives—have tried to impose a 21st century poll tax in the form of stringent voter identification requirements. Others have tried to make it harder for groups like unions to help people register to vote.
Voting machine problems and inadequate poll worker training caused primary election disasters this year, most notably in Maryland. Then there are the dirty tricks that only sometimes come to light—like the letter to Latinos from an Orange County, Calif., Republican campaign staff warning they could be jailed or deported if they vote. Please help us protect the vote and make sure no eligible voter is denied the right to be heard in this election.

So much is at stake in this election—good jobs, affordable health care, retirement security, education, workplace rights, job safety, civil rights and more. Don’t let anyone steal it. Thank you for making this election work for working families. In solidarity, Working Families e-Activist Network, AFL-CIO
