John --
My name is Charles Booker. I’m a proud Brand New Congress candidate running against Mitch McConnell in Kentucky. Today, I’m writing because I need your help.
The DSCC (the official Senate campaign arm of the Democratic Party) just endorsed my opponent in the primary. Before a single Kentuckian cast a ballot, party bosses in D.C. already hand-picked who they think should be the nominee.
It’s not just Kentucky. They pulled the same stunt in Colorado, Texas and other states too. Why? Because the establishment doesn’t like that we are fighting for a Green New Deal and guaranteed health care for every American. We’re upsetting the status quo.
Especially now in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, voters are hungry for a new kind of politics and want to elect a new slate of leaders who will unapologetically fight for the interests of the people.
Can you sign our campaign’s petition to call on the DSCC to stop meddling in our Democratic primaries? Let the voters decide who to put up against Mitch McConnell in November.
I’ll be frank. The DSCC doesn’t believe a Medicare for All + Green New Deal candidate can beat Mitch McConnell. They truly believe the way to win is by running to the soft center. That’s why they endorsed a Democrat who said Mitch’s problem is that he isn’t passing enough of Trump’s bills. (I’m not kidding!)
We can prove the DSCC wrong, and show them that a progressive can bring us victory in November. But we’ll only get that chance if enough of us make our voices heard right now to stop them from stacking the deck in favor of these handpicked establishment candidates.
Add your name to our petition now. Tell the DSCC: stay out of our primaries and let the voters decide.
Thank you for lending your voice to this fight.
Charles Booker
Candidate for U.S. Senate in Kentucky
