Washington, D.C. – As the 2024 election approaches, leading pro-democracy legal organization Democracy Forward highlights the importance of everyone who is eligible to vote casting a ballot on or before Tuesday, November 5. 

Democracy Forward President and CEO Skye Perryman issued the following statement:

“As election day nears, the stakes of the American people, our freedom, and our democracy could not be higher. In our nation, the freedom to cast votes and have them counted is foundational. We, the people. Under our system of government, it is we, the people who get to choose our leaders. At Democracy Forward, we encourage every American of voting age to cast their ballot and we support all voters in making their voices heard. We are grateful to the pollworkers, volunteers, and civil servants who are doing their part to ensure that all votes are cast and counted. After voters have done their job, it is imperative that every vote be counted and certified. Our team stands at the ready to support this nation’s long tradition of free and fair elections and we express our gratitude to the many people across the nation doing the same.”
