As Chairman of the Maryland Democratic Party’s Voter Protection effort, I wanted to share with you some important information about the ways in which the Maryland Democratic Party is working to protect your right to vote. Now, more than ever, because of new voting machines and recent changes in Maryland’s election law, it is essential that we work to uphold our strongly held Democratic belief that elections in our State must be conducted in a fair and unbiased manner.

We have established a Voter Empowerment Hotline:

1-888-678-VOTE

Voters can call this number to report any problems they encounter at the polls and to have their election-law questions answered. Please share this number with your family and friends.

It is vital that we join together to ensure that no one interferes with any Marylander’s right to cast his or her ballot. That is why we are currently recruiting lawyers and law students to help us monitor the polls on September 12 and November 7. You can join our Voter Protection Team by signing-up at http://www.mddems.com/protectthevote.php.

Please do not hesitate to call the Voter Empowerment Hotline with your questions or concerns. Together, we can keep every vote in Maryland safe and secure.
