“If people weren’t suffering right now, corruption feels harmless, but people are seeing their own situation getting worse, and they are connecting the dots on their own,” Bozzi said. This messaging has also linked disparate factions of the Democratic Party, too.”

Defend The Vote @wedefendthevote.org · 29/09/2026
Bozzi acknowledged that negative views about politicians are always “baked into” voters’ minds, but suggested that Trump’s impact on how Americans view corruption has “seeped out” beyond political circles and people “are so fed up.”

Defend The Vote @wedefendthevote.org · 29/09/2026
“It’s unavoidable,” Bozzi said, observing how this idea they began pushing last year is now in ads and talking points nationwide. “People are fed up, they have had enough and they don’t trust the system.”

“Defend the Vote, a progressive PAC focused on protecting voting access, has driven much of this messaging. The group began briefing top Democrats in Washington and candidates in competitive House races last year on why they should prioritize a message linking affordability to corruption.”

The Supreme Court handed down another terrible decision for voting rights. Fortunately, federal law still prohibits mass purges of voter rolls. It’s so important to check your voter registration. Make a plan to vote early. We’re not going to let them silence us. www.scotusblog.com/2026/09/supr...

The goal is simple: make sure nothing stands between you and your vote. Register. Check your status. Make a voting plan. Then VOTE.

And don’t wait until Election Day if you don’t have to. Vote early in person—if you can. If you’re voting by mail, request your ballot as soon as possible and get it back as early as you can.

Don’t assume your voter registration is fine just because you’ve voted before. Voter rolls change. Addresses change. Rules change. Check your registration now so there are no surprises when you go to cast your ballot.

“Take a $2.3 million ad buy in New Hampshire — one of the Senate seats Democrats almost certainly must hold onto if they want to control the Senate. The 30-second spot rolled out by Defend the Vote Action fund names “Donald Trump’s corruption” as one of the factors that has “broken” Washington.”

On the trail, Democrats recast going after ‘Trump corruption’ as just ‘corruption’
Democrats are nodding at the president's alleged corruption. But they're also talking about 'corruption' in a much broader, more bipartisan way.

This confirms what we already knew. This executive order by Trump is disastrous and will ruin our elections if it’s not stopped by the courts. Thankfully some of our allies are the strongest groups leading these legal challenges.
