North Carolina, this election matters.

Justice Anita Earls’ re-election to the North Carolina Supreme Court is one of the most important statewide elections in our state. For more than 30 years, she has stood on the front lines as a civil rights attorney, fighting for fairness, voting rights, and justice for communities too often left unheard.

For African Americans, this race is personal. The courts decide issues that shape our lives—our voting rights, our schools, our neighborhoods, our freedoms, and whether justice is applied equally.

We cannot afford to sit this one out.

Our ancestors fought, marched, organized, and sacrificed so we could have a voice. Now we must use it.

Supporting Justice Anita Earls means protecting fairness, defending civil rights, and ensuring the North Carolina Supreme Court reflects justice for all people.

Vote. Organize. Take someone with you. Our rights, our future, and our communities are on the ballot.

Lift Every Vote is hiring a Project Director in Forsyth County, NC.

This role is especially important because the strength of Forsyth County depends on every voice being informed, engaged, and represented. In 2026, nonpartisan outreach will be critical to helping increase African American voter turnout and ensuring our community is fully included in the decisions that shape our future.

We are looking for someone who is highly motivated, organized, and strong in community outreach, especially with African American churches and nonprofit organizations. Extensive Get-Out-The-Vote experience is not required. What matters most is a passion for people, strong relationship-building skills, and a commitment to civic engagement.

If you want to help make a real difference in Forsyth County, we encourage you to apply. To apply, send your cover letter and resume to [email protected].
