Voter Protection: Hands Off Our Vote!
Stopping Trump’s attempts to sabotage the 2026 election means preparing for all of the threats we could face — and being ready with community power, not panic. We are democracy’s strongest line of defense — and we need all hands on deck for this nationwide effort. Here in Chicago, we have a unique opportunity to help our neighbors in Michigan and Wisconsin protect their voters’ rights — both in person and from home. Election Day is November 3, but our work doesn't end when the polls close: on November 7, we march.
Our Votes Count March
Saturday, November 7 | 12–3 PM | Downtown Chicago
Whatever the election outcome, we will march together to send a clear message:
OUR VOTES COUNT. WE WILL DEFEND THEM.
WE EXPECT OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO FIGHT FOR US.
Exact location and details will be confirmed closer to the march.
SIGN UP to receive finalized information and updates.

Protect Voting Rights in Michigan and Wisconsin
There are many ways for out-of-state volunteers to help protect the vote in Michigan and Wisconsin. You can staff voter protection hotlines, ballot curing (helping people correct issues with their absentee ballots), or make calls to recruit past in-state volunteers, or work as a poll observer. For the 2026 Midterms, most of those positions have been filled, but you can still fill out an interest form so you are ready to help if needed for this or any upcoming election.
