Defend Democracy: Join Clean Elections Minnesota in the Fight Against Big Money and Protecting Voters' Rights

Our democracy is at a tipping point. The overwhelming influence of big money in politics, widespread voter suppression, and election disinformation are threatening the foundation of fair elections and inclusive representation. The radical blueprint, Project 2025, threatens to dismantle election systems and undermine our democracy. At Clean Elections Minnesota, we are taking action to fight back - but we need your help.


Why It Matters:

- Big Money's Stranglehold: Billionaires like Elon Musk, crypto oligarchs and dark money are drowning out the voices of everyday voters,  overwhelmingly tilting policies to benefit the wealthy.

- Eroding Trust: Disinformation divides communities and undermines confidence in election results by voters, regardless of party affiliation. The stability of democracy depends on public belief in the legitimacy of elections.  

- Attacks on Voting Rights: The Supreme Court’s ongoing gutting of the Voting Rights Act has emboldened states to roll back voter protections, purge voter rolls, and draw gerrymandered districts. To safeguard democracy, we must remain vigilant in Minnesota.

- Threats to Future Elections: Project 2025 if enacted, would expand executive power and dismantle critical election systems, jeopardizing the integrity of future elections.

Minnesota is leading the way with strong voter protections and electoral and campaign finance reforms. But this progress is fragile. We need to act now to defend it and continue to set a standard for the nation.


Your Impact:

Thanks to supporters like you, we've:

- Educated thousands of Minnesotans on voter rights, big money in politics, and election security through webinars and trusted resources.

- Reached over 230,000 persuadable voters using research, evidence-based messages, a website to combat disinformation and ads of videos of trusted messengers- election workers.

- Engaged thousands more through articles on election integrity in the Star Tribune. Our research and videos were used by other state democracy organizations for their 2024 voter education, outreach and turnout campaigns. 

- Championed laws to expand public financing and reduce dark money's influence in Minnesota elections.


Your Help is Urgent: 

This Give to the Max Day, help us reach our $10,000 goal to:

- Pass reforms that limit the power of big money in politics.

- Defend reforms and laws that protect voting rights and fight the extreme proposals in Project 2025.

- Empower voters with accurate, trusted information.  An informed electorate is the foundation of a thriving democracy.
