They haven’t gotten much attention but 2019 elections huge for voting rights:
KY could re-enfranchise 140,000 people
VA, KY, LA & MS could reverse GOP gerrymandering
VA could pass sweeping pro-voting reforms like automatic & Election Day registration motherjones.com/politics/2019/…

Want to know how Republicans rig elections? In Kentucky 300,000 people can't vote in Tuesday's gov race b/c of past felony conviction, including over 1 in 4 African Americans. Matt Bevin reversed policy restoring rights to non-violent ex-offenders, disenfranchising 140k 
Impeachment & 2020 rightly dominate news but don't forget how critical state races are for democracy. “Presidential election is of existential importance but these state races are more important than any state races have perhaps ever been" says @ericholder motherjones.com/politics/2019/…
As @SamWangPhD has noted, if Dems want to defeat Mitch McConnell in 2020 they need to realize that 300,000 people can’t vote in Kentucky, including over 1 in 4 African Americans, & Tuesday’s gov race could decide if 140k get right to vote back motherjones.com/politics/2019/…
