Alabama's 2nd Congressional District
Postcard Project
IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!
With the help of hundreds of volunteers across the country, LWV of Alabama and Alabama NAACP are prepared to deliver handwritten GOTV postcards to 37,482 voters. That's every registered Black voter in the 11 rural counties of AL's 2nd Congressional District!
To everyone who volunteered your time and/or money in support of this project - WE THANK YOU!
We are working to find out if there are other nonpartisan groups working on GOTV postcards to Montgomery and Mobile Counties (the two we didn't cover). If we get that info, we will post it here. So please check back. Or you can fill out the volunteer form below and we will email you directly if we get an update on how you can continue to work in AL CD2.
Thank you!
BACKGROUND
After decades of racial gerrymandering, Alabama voters won a court battle and, in 2023, new Congressional voting maps were created. The new 2nd Congressional District (CD2) runs across south Alabama, from Georgia to Mississippi. It includes Mobile and Montgomery, but most of the district is very rural.
With a 48.7% Black voting age population, the district was drawn to give Black voters the opportunity to select a candidate that will represent their priorities and values.
THE PLAN
LWV and NAACP are commited to ensuring that voters are empowered with the knowledge and tools that they need to make their voices heard at the ballot box on Election Day - November 5.
We have come together to send a hand-written postcard to every Black registered voter in rural CD2 to remind them to get out and vote on November 5!
