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.

Election Protection

Every eligible voter deserves a say in the policies that impact their daily lives. That is why Common Cause mobilizes volunteers nationwide to help voters cast their ballot.

The right to vote and have our voices heard is fundamental to our democracy. In defense of this right, Common Cause co-leads the Election Protection Coalition to help Americans across the country navigate the voting process and cast their ballot without obstruction, confusion, or intimidation. Our election protection efforts include:

Deploying thousands of on-the-ground volunteers at polling places
Recruiting a team of legal experts to staff the 866-OUR-VOTE hotline
Monitoring social media for harmful election disinformation

These election protection efforts are a crucial line of defense for voters against suppression tactics, confusing laws, outdated infrastructure, and more. Above all, we inform voters of their rights, help elections officials handle problems in real time, and notify attorneys when the situation warrants legal intervention.
