Folks — I had to reach out to tell you this:
Thank you.
Truly, your support means the world to our entire team. Just before we headed out of the office to celebrate with our loved ones, this team helped us cross $100,000 raised in online grassroots contributions this quarter. That’s huge.
I’m so proud of the team we’ve built together. Over 5,500 folks have stepped up to make a contribution — meaning we really aren’t relying on endless checks from private, dark money donors with an agenda. Our average contribution was less than $21 bucks this quarter.
I do want to make sure I’m clear — 2024 will be one of, if not the most expensive election cycle we’ve seen this far. The national Republican fundraising machine has already raised nearly $10 million dollars this year to flood battleground states like ours with the message of the MAGA right.
But I’ll let you in on a secret, friend — this team is strong, and with so much on the line next year, I know we’ll be able to build the coalition in takes to defeat the extremism on the right.
So again — thank you. Thanks for pitching in, signing a petition, or even reading this message this far. I’m truly grateful you’re in this fight with us.
I hope you’re having a safe and happy holiday season!
— Morgan Dick
