We Are America Alliance
| We Did It! |
 The We Are America Alliance and its partners are proud to announce that our efforts to get out the Asian, Latino, and immigrant vote were tremendously successful. This is a huge victory for the Alliance and our partners! Our goal from the beginning was to organize on many fronts to advance the civic participation of Latino, Asian, and immigrant citizens to better their opportunity to have an impact on the policies that they and their communities care about. Based on the work of the WAAA partners in several bellwether precincts of states like Colorado, Florida, and Washington, over 68% of the infrequent immigrant voters who WAAA contacted either voted early or turned out to vote on Election Day. Places like Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico also saw a record number of Latinos and immigrants who voted, having a huge impact on the election in their respective states.
