🗳️ The Primary Election will proceed as scheduled on Tuesday, May 19. Recent court decisions about Alabama’s congressional maps mean votes in Congressional Districts 1, 2, 6, and 7 will still be counted, but they won’t determine the final nominees while the legal process continues. A special primary election for those districts is expected later this year. This is your reminder: stay informed, stay ready, and stay engaged. ✔ Check your voter status ✔ Confirm your polling location ✔ Know your district ✔ Make your plan now 👉🏿 Visit Do the Vote Thing for more voter resources. #May19 #KnowBeforeYouGo

Your vote starts with being prepared. If your ID is expired, renew it. If you don’t have one, make a plan to get one. If you’ve moved, verify your voter registration and polling location. The goal is simple: remove barriers before Election Day. Confirm your voter status and make sure your information is up to date. Preparation is part of participation. Don’t wait until Election Day to discover a problem that could have been solved today. 🗳️ May 19 is coming. Prepare now so your voice is ready when it counts. #Vote #ElectionDay #DoTheVoteThing

This is about more than an election cycle. It’s about who gets heard and who gets counted. Communities across Alabama are being asked to accept less power, less representation, and less say in the decisions that shape daily life. We’re not doing that. Voting is a direct way to protect your community’s future and ensure decisions aren’t made without you in the room. 🗳️ Plan ahead for May 19. 📣 Don’t go alone, bring your people with you. 🔗 Visit Defend the Ballot for more information on voter resources. #VotingRights #FairMaps #ProtectOurVote

🚨 BREAKING: Alabama’s May 19 Primary Election is still happening. Secretary of State Wes Allen says voters should still head to the polls, and all statewide and local races will count as usual. However, votes cast for congressional races in Districts 1, 2, 6, and 7 will be reported but will not determine each party’s nominee for Congress. 🗳️ Voters in those districts will return to the polls on August 11, 2026, for a special congressional primary under Alabama’s new congressional map. Tap in with the Defend the Ballot for more updates on what this means for Alabama voters and the 2026 elections. #ALVotes #VotingRights #ElectionProtection #FairMaps

Your power is on the line. RIGHT NOW. 🗳️ Alabama’s primary is Tuesday, May 19 and we are NOT playing around. Every statewide race on that ballot counts immediately. Your future, your community, your voice — it all lives in that voting booth. We don’t have the luxury of sitting this one out. We must ALL make it to the ballot box while our vote still carries weight. Because it does. And it won’t always be guaranteed. Tell your mama. Tell your brother. Tell everybody! ⚠️ Heads up: Votes for U.S. House races in Districts 1, 2, 3, and 7 won’t count until redistricting is resolved. That is NOT a reason to stay home. Show up for EVERY other race on that ballot. Your future depends on it. No excuses. No delays. Just vote. 🔗 Everything you need to know → LINK IN BIO #Alabama #Vote #PrimaryElection #PowerOnTheLine #AlabamaPrimary

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed Alabama to use its 2023 congressional map for the 2026 election cycle while litigation over the state’s congressional districts continues. This means the court-ordered remedial map used in 2024 will not be used in the upcoming elections unless the courts rule otherwise. Tap in with the Election Protection bestie for more updates on what this means for Alabama voters and the 2026 elections. #VotingRights #FairMaps #AlabamaPolitics #ElectionProtection

Daeshon Goodwin, a Junior at Tuskegee, traveled to the Alabama State House because he believes representation matters. ✊🏾🗳️ During the Special Legislative Session public hearing, he made one thing clear: standing up for what you believe in will always matter more than staying silent. The next generation is showing up, speaking out, and paying attention. #thefightforfairmaps #VotingRights
