From the ballot box to the classroom, the dedicated workers, organizers, and leaders who forged this great organization and maintain its status as a champion of social justice, fought long and hard to ensure that the voices of African Americans would be heard. For nearly one hundred years, it has been the talent and tenacity of NAACP members that has saved lives and changed many negative aspects of American society.

ELECTION PROTECTION Works Call 1-866-our-vote and report problems voting
Already this morning, we have received calls and communications about voting practices in Jefferson City that poll workers are demanding the drivers licenses for verification from voters holding voter registration cards!
Improper -
Students at Lincoln are being told they can't vote this time because the poll workers at McClung Park are not calling back to the office to get the latest registration information for voters!
Improper -
Too many people died for the ability of all Americans to vote - thats people in the military and civilian life. Now crazy politicians are running around talking about protecting the vote with voter ID and what it really amounts to is Jim Crow poll taxes. Vote against those who would take your right to vote.
Improper - and too important to wait - if you get hassled at the poll, call 1-866-our-vote and show em what a real American does when their civil rights are being messed with!

Voting against a amendment 3 will preserve your access to the courts. Lawyers and judges throughout the state are working to defeat this measure. Lead the way - and make sure we have open and fair access to the courts.
Election Day is finally upon us, and I urge all of you to vote tomorrow. As you know, Amendment 3 on the Missouri ballot would inject politics into the selection of our Supreme Court and Court of Appeals judges. For that reason, the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association and I urge you to vote “NO” on Amendment 3.
Because voters approved The Missouri Plan 72 years ago, we have benefitted from fair and impartial courts. Missouri has been a model for the nation on how to select judges in the least political manner.
It has never been more important to show your support for keeping politics and politicians out of our courtrooms. I encourage you to show your support for The Missouri Plan by voting “NO” on Constitutional Amendment 3. For more information, please visitwww.MoFairCourts.com.
