2024 Presidential Election

The 60th quadrennial presidential election, scheduled for Tuesday, November 5, 2024, is considered to be the most consequential election of our lifetimes where Americans will have the opportunity to protect democracy and democratic norms from extreme right-wing policies, racial violence and growing threat of authoritarianism by Republicans.

Alex Vindman

A retired United States Army lieutenant colonel and former United States National Security Council official who provided testimony about alarming requests by former President Trump to enlist Ukraine to smear political rival Joe Biden at Trump’s first impeachment inquiry. Citing intimidation from the White House over his testimony, Vindman retired in 2020. He is a patriot and example of the best of us.
