ALT The letter subject is: Every Vote Counts and the body is: Time is running out until the election, and lawmakers across our state need to take a stand for a basic pillar of our democracy – counting every vote. With an unprecedented number of Americans voting absentee this year, we need to ensure that every eligible vote is counted. From members of the military who send their vote from overseas, to people with pre-existing conditions who are voting absentee, to people voting on Election Day – every vote counts. That's why the vast majority of Americans believe it’s important to accurately count every vote, even if it takes longer than usual to declare a winner. Making sure our election administrators can count every vote is essential to our democracy. I urge you to respect the will of the people and support our state’s election officials in making sure every eligible vote is counted.
