Protect the 2026 Midterm Elections From Interference The 2026 midterms are already under threat, and I need you to act now — not fundraise, not issue a statement, but take concrete legislative and legal action to defend them. The playbook is visible: pressure GOP-controlled states to redraw maps and restrict ballot access, deploy federal agents like ICE to intimidate voters and election offices, flood the public with fraud myths to delegitimize results, and then pressure Congress to refuse seating winners if Republicans lose the House. This isn't speculation. It's already in motion. Federal law sets Election Day as November 3, 2026, and no president can cancel it. But the real danger isn't a dramatic cancellation — it's the slow procedural erosion that looks legitimate until it isn't. Redistricting fights, ballot access restrictions, and certification challenges are harder to stop in court and easier to normalize. I want you to introduce or co-sponsor legislation that prohibits federal law enforcement from operating at polling places, strengthens certification requirements, and protects election officials from federal intimidation. The decentralized structure of American elections is a guardrail — help reinforce it before it's too late.
