Whoa.

Democrats in Arizona have found a way to stave off the state’s GOP voter suppression laws.

But it requires action NOW.

If they get enough petition signatures by 9/28/21, the laws will be BLOCKED…and appear as ballot measures in 2022 instead!

In order for Arizonans to stop the 3 GOP-passed voter suppression laws from taking effect on 9/29/21 take, they would need to get 118,823 valid signatures on 3 separate petitions by 9/28/21.

That's A LOT of signatures.

But I think it's doable.

And again, if the petition drive is successful, it would put those laws on the ballot in the November 2022 election.

That means that the laws would not be in effect BEFORE the November 2022 election, giving us a fairer chance to win election in Arizona that year!

I'm unable to find any info at the moment as to how Arizonans can sign these petitions.

But if you live in Arizona, START MAKING CALLS IMMEDIATELY TO YOUR LOCAL DEMOCRATIC OFFICES!

Ask about these petitions and how you can sign them!

If it is indeed possible to at least temporarily stop the GOP's voter suppression efforts through a ballot initiative/petition, it's important for all Dem groups in Arizona to be aware and organize:

@azdemparty
@NAUYoungDems
@ydaz
@AZSenateDems
@A_DLCC
@AZHouseDems

It might also behoove Arizona Democrats interested in signing these anti-voter suppression petitions to reach out to their County Dem groups for more information as well.

Here are a few:

@MaricopaDems
@PimaDems
@PinalDems
@CoconinoDems
@santacruzdems

Here is the first official word that local Arizona Democratic groups are looking into the petition effort to thwart these voter suppression laws.

In other words, stay tuned!!!
