[ [link removed] ]Leaders We Deserve





Hi John. David here with an
update on one of the most important races for our movement:

Akbar Ali is on the cusp of becoming the youngest legislator in Georgia
history — not by luck, but because he showed up. He knocked on doors,
listened, and fought for his community. And he got here because supporters
like you believed in him and fueled his campaign.

But Leaders We Deserve isn’t here for “almost.” We’re here to make
history.

No candidate reached 50% in the race for Georgia’s 106th House District,
so Akbar is headed to a December 2nd runoff. We only have a few weeks to
finish this fight, and we’ve come way too far to fall short now.

[ [link removed] ]Will you split a donation right now of $21 — for a 21-year-old
candidate — or anything else between Leaders We Deserve and Akbar’s
campaign to power this final push and win?

Akbar’s momentum is real. He finished just 500 votes behind his runoff
opponent — an extraordinary result for a first-time, 21-year-old
candidate.

He earned it the hard way: months of door-knocking, building support
conversation by conversation, making sure every community in one of the
most diverse districts in the country was heard — even traveling with two
interpreters to ensure no one was left out.

From those conversations, he built a platform rooted in what people here
actually need: expanding Medicaid, protecting SNAP, improving public
schools, and addressing everyday issues like predatory HOA fines — things
you only understand when you’re truly rooted in the community you’re
asking to represent.

And here’s the truth: Akbar made it to this runoff because of you. Your
support turned a long shot into a frontrunner. Because of you, we were
able to invest in field organizing and knock doors in Atlanta just days
before Election Day. I talked to voters who didn’t even know an election
was happening — but after we talked, they were committed to voting for
Akbar.

That’s how we win. One conversation at a time, one race at a time,
building a new generation of leadership from the ground up.

Now we need to finish what we started. Runoffs are decided by turnout, and
turnout is about organizing. Your support right now will determine what
happens on December 2nd.

contribution of $21 or anything you can give between Leaders We Deserve
and Akbar’s campaign so we don’t fall short?
