Mission: Save Democracy

Vote 417 is a group of Southwest Missourians who believe that our most precious right as Americans is the right to vote, and have our votes counted. Every eligible citizen who wants to vote should be able to vote, and vote easily. We support candidates and causes that advance voter rights, and vigorously oppose those that support voter suppression.

Our democracy is under attack from within
Within the past year, 38% of our nation — 19 states — have passed laws making it harder to vote. Some states have even given their legislatures power to overturn election outcomes they don’t like. We cannot let that happen in Missouri. Help us make Missouri a beacon for free and fair elections.

“It’s not the hand that signs the laws that holds the destiny of America. It’s the hand that casts the ballot.”
