Friend,

The day has come when we’ve truly seen everything. Faced with intense voter backlash at their overreaching policies, Republican governors from Florida to Wisconsin and everywhere in between are pushing a desperate attempt to keep Democratic voters away from the polls, signing bills that limit our most vulnerable citizens’ right to vote.

These bills have one objective in mind: preventing President Obama from winning re-election in 2012.

The Democratic Governors Association has launched the Voter Protection Project, aimed at making sure our voters know their rights, make it to the polls, and aren’t cut out of the process entirely.

Click here to give $5, $10 or more to the Voter Protection Project right now. Every dollar you give will be matched—so give today and help us start out strong.

In only five months, Republican governors have shown that their focus is on settling old political scores, making drastic cuts to education, and even supporting extreme proposals that would end Medicare as we know it. As Democrats, we know that this Republican agenda is flat-out wrong, and we won’t stand for it.

That’s why I’m asking for your help today. We have an opportunity to show Republican governors like Scott Walker and Rick Scott that their agendas are out of the mainstream. Today, we have an opportunity to show that everyday Americans like you aren’t going to sit idly by while our core values come under attack from the Tea Party extremists.

Click here to rush $5, $10 or more to support the Voter Protection Project right now. Your gift will be matched—doubling your impact—so stand up for Democrats today!

Republicans know that you won’t stand for their desperate antics, which is why they want to drown out your voice. Today, you can show them that your voice will be heard.

Sincerely,

Colm O'Comartun
Executive Director
Democratic Governors Association
