"A North Carolina court just threw out Republicans' gerrymandered state legislature map"
- Vox, September 3
Friend -
Just last night, a North Carolina court unanimously struck down the state's Republican-drawn legislative districts - calling the gerrymandered map unconstitutional.
State lawmakers will now have two weeks to draw new districts, putting us in a fighting chance of flipping both chambers this election.
This is our chance to fight back, rally hard, and win in critical states like North Carolina. But with Republicans already doubling-down on money for the next election, we have to move fast.
This is a game-changer for flipping North Carolina blue - but we HAVE to act now if we're going to take advantage of this news. Rush a $10 donation now so we can compete on fair district lines across the country >>

The GOP has long resorted to gerrymandering to safeguard their power. Thanks to their extreme map-rigging, Republicans in North Carolina held onto power in the legislature last November - even after they got less than half of the overall votes.
But under fair legislative lines, we have a chance at flipping BOTH state chambers in 2020. If we get a district map that allows voters to choose their representatives - not the other way around - 2020 could be the year Democrats finally flip states like North Carolina blue.
We can't let this ruling - and all of the hard work we've built since November - fall through the cracks. If we want groundbreaking Democratic wins this election, then we have to fight right now.
We need you in this fight right now. Quickly, pitch in $10 to help elect state Democrats everywhere >>
