| Jason, There's an all-out effort to steal an election happening right now in North Carolina. Her opponent, Jefferson Griffin, simply refused to concede — going to court to challenge over 65,000 ballots. All of those voters, including thousands of service members overseas, followed the rules on Election Day. But Republicans argued they didn't like the rules, and so the votes shouldn't count. Now, here's the infuriating part: the courts so far are going along with it. The state supreme court just ruled that thousands of voters have 15 days to "cure" their ballots. They know full well that it will be extremely hard to get all those voters to respond — and if they don't, it could easily flip the outcome of the election. Right now, this is still all playing out in the courts. Everyone expects that it'll go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, where heaven knows what will happen. The implications are enormous. If a Republican who lost on Election Day is allowed to throw out large swaths of Democratic votes, you better believe MAGA is going to try this all over the country. Conservative courts will be asked to throw out Democratic ballots everywhere a Democrat manages to eke out a victory. This is among the scariest tests of our democracy that I can recall — and these days, that's saying something! Here's what I know: Justice Riggs won the election fair and square, and she's fighting like hell for every vote (not just Democratic ones) to count. Split a donation today with her legal fund and Democratic Majority Action and let's help ensure that voters — not politicians — decide who wins elections. Thank you,
