Protecting Elections Locally in Critical States

​

As part of Force Multiplier’s strategy to fight autocracy and protect free and fair elections, we have created a fund to support local, on-the-ground efforts to build a coordinated election protection infrastructure able to anticipate and respond to threats cycle after cycle.

Cohen

There are two groups in this fund:

 

All Voting is Local Action (AVL Action)

All Voting is Local Action (AVL Action) advocates for policies and legislative priorities that expand voter access and prevent partisan interference in elections. They focus on Black, Brown, Native American and other historically marginalized communities. AVL Action advocates for state and local pro-voter legislation, works to defeat disenfranchising legislation, and holds accountable elected officials and candidates who attempt to silence voters. AVL Action works in states like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

 

Iowa Democratic Party
Iowa has a Republican Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, a Republican-controlled Legislature and Republican oversight of elections. However, under state law, both state parties have a unique role in election protection and voter protection. The Iowa Democratic Party is successfully developing collaborative relationships with state and local election officials and using those relationships to proactively expand voter access and resolve large-scale election issues. Force Multiplier is raising money for a staff member dedicated to election protection to  work with volunteers and staff to ensure that all voters can vote, their votes are counted, and they are certified. This work supports a fair election process for the two House challengers in Iowa who are on Force Multiplier’s slate.
