Sherrod Brown here with urgent news:

Sen. Joe Manchin is not running for reelection in West Virginia, meaning Democrats are virtually guaranteed to lose a Senate seat.

Let me explain what that means for us. Even before this, experts were saying our race could decide Senate control – but now, I’m afraid that if we lose this race, we will lose the Senate.

I know we can win in Ohio – Tuesday’s election showed just that – but we’re going to need an immediate surge of grassroots support to make it happen. So please, if you want to keep Mitch McConnell from retaking the Senate as much as I do, rush $5 right now to help us win this race & keep the Senate blue.
