| WASHINGTON – The Voter Protection Project (VPP), the largest national PAC focused on electing voting rights champions and holding Republicans accountable for their attacks on the ballot box, proudly announces its early support for Christina Bohannan who is slated to take on Republican Representative Mariannette Miller-Meeks in Iowa’s 1st congressional district. “Iowans are looking to send someone to Washington who understands every vote matters and who won’t get bogged down in the constant bickering that has blocked our ability to protect voting rights. That person is Christina Bohannan,” said Heather Greven, Executive Director of the Voter Protection Project. “Incumbent Representative Miller-Meeks was narrowly elected by 6 votes last cycle and has now been redrawn into a district in which she currently does not live. The Voter Protection Project is thrilled to endorse Christina Bohannan who brings her proven record on voting rights from the Statehouse and provides us with the best chance to flip this seat from red to blue.” “I’m honored by this endorsement. Protecting democracy is not a partisan issue. It’s never been more important to work together to ensure that every lawful vote counts” Christina Bohannan, candidate for Congress. After an $8 million dollar inaugural cycle as an organization, the Voter Protection Project is doubling down for 2022. Christina Bohannan joins other recently endorsed powerhouse candidates like recently elected Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury, Cheri Beasley for Senate, Tim Ryan for Senate, Bridie Farrel in NY-21, Bridget Fleming in NY-01, and John Lira in TX-23. VPP will continue to make early investments to protect and elect Democrats who will make voting easier, not harder. |
| ### Founded in 2019, the Voter Protection Project works to confront the architects of voter suppression directly at the ballot box. Following the Supreme Court’s Rucho v. Common Cause ruling, which stated that federal courts cannot regulate partisan gerrymandering, VPP has taken on the fight to defeat voter suppression state-by-state. During the 2020 cycle, they raised over $8-million to support candidates for office at the federal and state levels that champion fair and representative elections.
