voter suppression

As the 2024 Presidential Election draws near, Alabama still has one of the lowest voter turnout percentages in the nation. The ACLU of Alabama is working to increase voter participation in Alabama with Project MOVE (Making Our Voices Echo).

Some 170 foundations, donors and advisors have signed on to a pledge started by the nonprofit Democracy Fund to make their grants earlier this Election Year. The "get out the vote" effort will reportedly include Alabama.

A coalition of civil rights, voting rights and disability rights organizations are suing Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, Alabama’s 42 District Attorneys and Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen to block Alabama’s recently enacted law that bans paid assistance with absentee ballot applications.

Alabama legislators began debate on legislation to restrict assistance with absentee ballot applications. The bill is part of a GOP push to combat so-called ballot harvesting but that Democrats called an effort to discourage voting by alternate means.

In today’s episode of Crunk Culture, Robin Boylorn explains the history of voter suppression and emphasizes its modern-day implications.
