NAACP Announces Nationwide Town Halls To Drive Black Voter Turnout For 2026 Midterms NAACP President Derrick Johnson said that outside of the 2026 midterms, the town halls will also discuss issues facing the Black community.

While Trump is taking away our freedoms, hurting families and our communities, NAACP recognizes the urgency to fight back and will hold nationwide town halls leading up to the midterms in 2026.

North Carolina Supreme Court issues order in Riggs-Griffin case β€’ NC Newsline The North Carolina Supreme Court ruled Friday in the dispute over last November's election for an associate justice seat on the high court

Many of the voters Griffin is seeking to disenfranchise in the NC Supreme Court race are military voters who used an absentee ballot, just like Griffin did in 2020. These voters followed all the rules and voted legally, and should not be harassed simply bc Griffin is a sore loser. #OurVoteCounts

Abortion access, voting rights, & our fundamental freedoms are on the line in the WI Supreme Court election on 4/1.

MAGA Rs want to roll back our rights to appease their billionaire backers & want to take control of the court.

Vote for Judge Susan Crawford on April 1st, to protect our freedoms!

Judge Susan Crawford spent her career standing up to insurance and drug companies trying to rip us off. Her opponent sued to overturn the ACA as AG. If he had been successful, nearly 1 million Wisconsinites would have lost their healthcare.

Vote for Judge Crawford on April 1st to protect our care.

Judge Susan Crawford has spent her career protecting the rights of all Wisconsinites.
Over the years, she’s fought to defend abortion access, healthcare, and workers’ rightsβ€”and now, she’ll be a fair, common-sense voice Wisconsin deserves on the state Supreme Court.
Vote for her by April 1st!

On 4/1, vote for Susan Crawford for the WI Supreme Court and Jill Underly for the Superintendent of Public Instruction, who boosted graduation rates to 90%. Also, vote NO on the constitutional amendmentβ€”it's another voter ID restriction that will suppress votes.

We have about 2 short weeks until the WI Supreme Court election on 4/1.

The WI Supreme Ct has a 4-3 liberal majorityβ€”meaning many cases involving issues like abortion rights are decided by 1 justice.

On April 1st, voters will decide the balance of the court and vote for Susan Crawford!
