| Posted: 07 Apr 2020 08:23 AM PDT I am a lawyer working to elect Democrats and protect voting rights. In March, I launched Democracy Docket: a new tool in the fight against Republican voter suppression. The website features the latest in voting rights and redistricting litigation and shares my commentary on the greatest obstacles to casting a ballot. I also publish a monthly newsletter -- On the Docket -- that you can subscribe to here. In the wake of COVID-19, I've repeatedly emphasized the need for states to enact safeguards to protect all voters, specifically by adopting my four pillars to vote by mail and my five rules to protect voting in person. Currently, I am leading voting rights litigation in over a dozen states. You can read about my team's latest victory in Florida here, learn more about the emergency litigation we've filed in response to the current outbreak, and follow me on Twitter at @marceelias for ongoing case updates. I look forward to answering your questions...my dog's name is Bode. https://twitter.com/marceelias/status/1246931907067207682 Thank you all for your great questions today. Keep fighting for Democracy. [link] [comments]  | ||
