We didn’t lose the South to voter suppression alone. We lost it because we stopped building.

For years, many of us have treated attacks on voting rights as a series of isolated battles. A restrictive voting law here. A gerrymandered district there. A Supreme Court ruling that strips away protections that generations of Americans bled and marched and died to secure. We respond. We litigate. We mobilize.

Rick Jackson wants voters to forget Donald Trump

CANTON, GEORGIA — As Rick Jackson barnstormed around Georgia on election eve, he kept emphasizing how he’ll continue the legacy of outgoing Gov. Brian Kemp — while avoiding mention of President Donald Trump. Amidst stiff national headwinds, Jackson is looking to localize the governor’s race as much as possible in his swing state. “In Georgia, a governor makes decisions every day that affect your life.

He then offered a veiled nod to voters’ fury at the president: “No matter what has happened in Washington, through two different presidents.” “At the end of the day, a governor cannot control what happens at the national level,” said Garrison Douglas, spokesperson for Jackson. “All he can control is what happens at the state level and how we respond to those national and world events. And that’s what he’s talking about.” Through two events Sunday and Monday – his major closing rally and a breakfast — the closest Jackson came to mentioning the president was when he credited Kemp for the $4 billion
