Senate Republicans confirm their #1 choice to flip Wisconsin’s Democratic Senate seat will run against Tammy Baldwin.
🚨 BREAKING: National Republicans just confirmed GOP megamillionaire Eric Hovde will run against Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin’s Senate race 🚨
Mitch McConnell’s #1 choice in Wisconsin’s Senate race, Eric Hovde, is going to run — a multimillionaire California bank owner who pledged to spend at least $20 million 💰 of his own personal fortune to buy Tammy’s seat.
Republicans spent an eye-popping $77 million to buy their way to a 1% victory in Wisconsin’s last Senate race, and Mitch McConnell is sure they can flip Tammy’s seat this time around. That’s why the GOP is calling multimillionaire California bank owner Eric Hovde back to Wisconsin to self-fund a run for U.S. Senate.
It’s clear Republicans will do and spend whatever it takes to defeat Tammy and elect another anti-choice extremist to the Senate who will push their radical agenda forward. We can’t let Wisconsin’s Senate seat be bought by the highest bidder.
But running against a self-funder with a virtually unlimited war chest at his disposal means this could be Tammy’s toughest and most expensive race yet. If we’re going to compete with Eric Hovde’s major cash advantage, we’ll need LOTS of grassroots donors like you to step up right now.
