See page 24. The 1964 Mississippi Freedom Summer was a pivotal moment for democracy in America. Yet 50 years later, despite many gains at the local level, the dream of Freedom Summer remains largely unrealized in the stretch of heavily black southern states known as the Black Belt. There are a number of significant and troubling signs: • Large numbers of black voters and voters of color remain unregistered. • New waves of voter suppression laws are being passed, and they have taken a form not seen since the rise of Jim Crow laws.

Haygood November 2014 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG The Battle to Protect the Vote Voter Suppression Efforts in Five States and Their Effect on the 2014 Midterm Elections By Ben Jealous and Ryan P. Haygood November 2014 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 5 Effect of voter suppression in five states 5 Texas 8 Alabama 11 North Carolina 12 Virginia 14 Georgia 16 The antidote to massive voter suppression 18 Conclusion 19 About the authors & acknowledgments 20 Endnotes Introduction and summary “So long as I do not firmly and irrevocably possess the right to vote, I do not possess myself. I cannot make up my mind—it is made up for me. I cannot live as a democratic citizen.”1— Martin Luther King Jr. The right to vote is the cornerstone of American democracy. The free exercise of the franchise is essential to the preservation and protection of all other constitutional rights. It serves as a check on America’s political leaders and as a source of power for citizens. In this way, the vote is a tangible measure both of what we are as a nation and of what we aspire to be. The question that every American should ask is: How can we collectively encour- age more people to participate in the political process? Instead of embracing this important principle of inclusion, however, too many states have recently sought to make it harder for Americans to vote in the 2014 elections through concerted legislative efforts or policy decisions.

    NPAM Election Analysis Maryland Primary Election Results – At a Glance Governor’s Race Former NAACP leader Ben Jealous defeated five other Democrats and will face Governor Larry Hogan in the general election. Maryland General Assembly While provisional and absentee ballots are being counted this week (and as a result, key aspects of this report are subject to change), we expect at least fifteen (15) new members of the 47-member Senate, and twenty-nine (29) new members of the 141-member House of Delegates after the November 6 General Election. Both chambers will also see changes in several key leadership posts when the Governor and General Assembly are sworn in mid-January 2019. While not an exhaustive list, below are some updates from the Maryland’s primary elections. Please note, provisional and absentee ballots have not yet been counted. Some of these outcomes are not final and may be subject to change. We will update you accordingly.
