Election Defense Scenarios<\/strong> is a field guide for protecting democracy. This resource walks readers through eighteen detailed scenarios \u2014 from voter roll purges and redistricting attacks to armed intimidation at polling places and post-election certification battles \u2014 giving organizers, poll workers, community leaders, and everyday citizens the knowledge they need before a crisis hits. Each scenario draws on real historical examples from Georgia to Belarus to Tuskegee, showing not just how threats unfold, but how ordinary people have successfully pushed back.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What makes this guide indispensable is its refusal to inspire helplessness. <\/strong>Rather than cataloguing threats for their own sake, every scenario pairs clear-eyed analysis with concrete, actionable responses grounded in law, history, and proven organizing strategy constantly asking \u201cWhat would you do?\u201d Because the best time to prepare is now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
