the Michigan GOP is ready to "show up armed"

and I’m the last line of defense fighting back {NAME}, can you believe this? [Ryan Kelley, a GOP candidate for Governor and Mike Detmer, a Republican candidate for State Senate, told prospective poll workers to unplug ballot machines from the walls and show up “prepared to lock and load”!]( We know where this is coming from. Trump says the quiet parts out loud and his loyalists repeat them. But these threats of violence or plans to disrupt voting at the polls are unacceptable, whether they come from the leader of the party or a local candidate. [I joined Nicolle Wallace to discuss how I’m fighting back against the GOP’s hard-right turn to violence and radicalism – but I can’t do it alone. Give my interview a watch, and after rush $10 to help me continue to protect our democracy from the GOP >>]( [WATCH AND CHIP IN >>]( [I condemn these threats of election tampering and violence at the polls and call on the GOP and my opponents to do the same, but so far they’ve remained silent.]( As we’ve seen from their continued efforts to derail our democracy, today’s GOP doesn’t care how they win elections - and they will do just about anything to ensure their preferred candidate wins. Like I told Nicolle, this is what happens when the leader of your party has completely and totally bought into the lie that he lost due to nonexistent “fraud”. [The “big lie” has so infiltrated the Republican Party that if I am replaced by Matthew DePerno, or another one of my far-right challengers, democracy and accountability falls in Michigan.]( [We were prepared to address these threats in 2020, and will be again in 2022. Which is why we can’t afford to fall behind in this race.]( [DePerno and Detmer are heading into November with the far-right’s vast fundraising network behind them. We can beat them, but it’s going to be tough. Can I count on you to rush your first contribution of $10 to help me save democracy in Michigan? >>]( If you've saved your payment info with ActBlue Express, your donations will process immediately: [CHIP IN $10 >>]( [CHIP IN $25 >>]( [CHIP IN $50 >>]( [CHIP IN $100 >>]( [CHIP IN $250 >>]( [ANOTHER AMOUNT>>]( Thank you, Dana --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for being a part of Dana's re-election campaign!
