LeBron James and several other athletes announced Wednesday they are forming a group aimed at energizing black voters and tackling voter suppression in cities ahead of the 2020 election. James, along with Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young, WNBA star Skylar Diggins-Smith, ESPN analyst Jalen Rose and others, formed More Than a Vote. One key part of voter suppression the group plans to tackle is misinformation through social media. “Yes, we want you to go out and vote, but we're also going to give you the tutorial,” James told The New York Times. James hopes that his group could spark immediate action, according to ESPN.
