Georgia: “a hot, flaming, f--ing mess”
{NAME},
The last person in line at their polling place in Union City, Georgia cast their vote at 12:36 a.m. Wednesday morning — nearly four hours after polls closed there.
Long lines, voting machine malfunctions, people simply getting out of line and going home — this is voter suppression. It’s outrageous, and we can’t let what happened in Georgia become a model for what happens nationwide in November.
We know how to fix it. States need to expand vote-by-mail and early voting, and open enough in-person polling locations to ensure everyone can vote safely amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. And Congress needs to give them the money to do it.
In May, House Democrats voted to give states $3.6 billion in election preparedness funds to ensure Americans don’t have to choose between their health and their vote, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is refusing to bring it up for a vote.

We know we can hold our elections fairly and safely by providing states with these funds and expanding vote-by-mail options. But Republicans in Congress are dragging their feet as President Trump continues to spout conspiracy theories about making it easier to vote.

[TELL YOUR SENATORS TO SUPPORT A SAFE DEMOCRACY](
What happened in Georgia this week is a warning sign we can’t ignore. Congress needs to act now to ensure we can protect the integrity of our democracy and ensure the right to vote.
Thanks,
- Let America Vote
