This is ugly -- North Carolina is a key battleground state and Washington Republicans have already started using shady tactics to win in 2020.

My friend, Cal Cunningham, is the leader hardworking North Carolinians need in the Senate, but he needs our help to overcome the dark money consuming his race. Will you split a contribution between Cal’s campaign and mine?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and split between Cal Cunningham and Sherrod Brown:

Express Donate: $5

Express Donate: $10

Express Donate: $26

Or donate another amount.

Here’s what’s going on in Cal’s race:

FIRST: President Trump went to North Carolina this month for a campaign rally to support Cal’s Republican opponent and drive dark money into the state.

NOW: A Republican-backed PAC has dumped $2.4 MILLION into TV and radio ads to influence the outcome.

Let me tell you why: Republicans know Cal is a formidable opponent, and they’re doing everything in their power to stop him.

Cal’s Republican opponent already has more than $9 million in the bank, and with millions more pouring in from outside groups, Cal is depending on a strong surge of grassroots support to win in November. Split a contribution between our campaigns today. >>

With gratitude,

Sherrod
