Contingency Plan for Trump Claiming Victory Regardless of Results

Leah and Ezra here, we’re two of the co-founders of Indivisible. We won’t sugarcoat it. Every day it is becoming more clear that Trump will likely attempt to cling to power if he loses. News just broke that his campaign is in the process of discussing contingency plans to bypass election results and appoint loyal electors in battleground states where Republicans hold the legislative majority. While in any other time in American history this news may have come as a bombshell, this is now entirely predictable.

With an unprecedented level of vote-by-mail in November, we likely won’t know who won until days or even weeks after Election Day. Why does this matter? Well, Trump is likely to claim victory on election night regardless of the results and he will label mail-in ballots as a fraud.

Luckily, Indivisible Action has already been working on a contingency plan. It’s called Protect the Results — a joint effort between 40 (and counting!) partner organizations to prepare for a mass mobilization if Trump loses the election and refuses to leave office.

This plan involves a massive amount of effort and resources — $1.2 million dollars to be exact — to build the digital ads and infrastructure needed to respond. It is up to us to protect our Democracy, and we need your help now more than ever. Donate now to Protect the Results and support the general mission of Indivisible Action. Together with your help, we will win!
