Election Protection

Our democracy works best when every voter can participate and when every ballot is counted as cast. That is why we are mobilizing nonpartisan volunteers across the state this year to help voters cast their ballot freely and fairly.

We know that far too many voters in Arizona, especially voters of color, face barriers to the ballot box—like long lines, not enough voting machines or equipment, confusing laws, disinformation, or even just human error.

Stopping Voter Suppression

Some elected officials are trying to silence voters by creating needless barriers to the ballot box. Common Cause is fighting back against these anti-democracy efforts.

We should be able to make our voices heard at the polls and have a say in the leaders who represent us. But sometimes, politicians push for laws that discourage, obstruct, or even intimidate voters in an effort to cling to their power.

Polling place closures, limits to vote-by-mail, and needlessly strict voter ID regulations can prevent eligible voters from casting their ballot—and lately, this playbook of voter suppression strategies has become more popular. Common Cause is stopping voter suppression by opposing these efforts in the legislature, in the courts, and beyond in defense of the right to vote.

This referral has already passed the Senate and is now in the House. If it passes, it will go to voters in the 2024 general election, bypassing the governor’s veto power. We need your help to stop this. Tell your lawmakers...
