Bad news, friend. Democrat Eliz Markowitz lost her race for the Texas state House yesterday. This was always going to be one of our toughest pickup opportunities -- her opponent was a major self-funder. And we still have a very real path to winning nine seats this year and stopping the GOP from manipulating the maps in Texas again.

Still, this should be a wake-up call. I know we’ve had a lot of successes together, but our 2020 targets are going to be tough. We’re talking about states like Texas, Georgia, and Ohio, where Republicans have a lock on power… and on redistricting, if we don’t win at the ballot box this year.

Our end-of-month deadline is this Friday, and we need to raise $90,000 to avoid falling behind. Will you give now?

A.G. Holder said it best after last year’s Supreme Court decision that federal courts cannot put limits on partisan gerrymandering:

That’s our plan, friend. But we can’t afford to lose special elections like yesterday’s!

Will you help us get back on track? Pitch in to help us win in Republican-controlled states in 2020.

Thanks,
Tara
