AFPI’s Kenneth Blackwell on Today’s Primary Elections Across the Country

WASHINGTON, D.C. - America First Policy Institute (AFPI) Secure Elections Chairman J. Kenneth Blackwell today urges Americans to head to the polls as voters in Oklahoma, the District of Columbia, Alabama, Georgia, and California cast ballots in primaries, runoffs, and a special election, which will help set the choices voters face this November. He stated: 

“Self-government is not a spectator sport. It belongs to the citizens who show up. 

Primaries are where the direction of a party, and ultimately the country, is decided. I would urge every voter to look past the noise and ask a simple question: which candidate will actually stand up for the values they believe in? Vote your values and vote for the men and women who will defend an America First agenda when it counts. 

Our elections only work when people believe in them, and belief is earned at the ballot box. Every honest vote strengthens the trust that holds this country together. That trust is worth defending, and the surest way to defend it is to take part in it. So, find your polling place, make a plan, and cast your ballot today. The future of this country has always belonged to the Americans willing to show up for it.”
