We got some HUGE news yesterday, John.
Every candidate running for federal office was required to submit the full report of their campaign’s fourth-quarter fundraising numbers to the Federal Election Commission. And once Josh Hawley filed his report, we learned that Lucas didn’t just outraise him last quarter — our grassroots campaign outraised Hawley for all of 2023!
Last year, Lucas raised $5.4 million to defeat Josh Hawley — with an average donation of $33 and grassroots donors from every single county across the state, setting the record for the most ever raised in an off-year by a Senate challenger in Missouri.
This is a historic accomplishment for a grassroots campaign in our state, and it wouldn’t have been possible without support from real people like you.
But unfortunately, it’s not all good news today, John:
Yesterday’s reports also revealed that national insiders are still determined to bail out Josh Hawley. They transferred nearly $500,000 directly into his campaign and raised more into the Super PAC they funded with $1M+ last summer.
At this point, it’s not surprising. The insiders and elites backing Hawley have known Lucas was a threat since the day he got into this race. They’ve acted on it too, with desperate attacks and big investments into Hawley’s campaign quarter after quarter.
But things got worse for Hawley at the end of last year. Morning Consult confirmed that he’s the least popular Republican Senator up for re-election in 2024. Then, multiple polls showed Lucas already in a margin-of-error race with Hawley — making this our best opportunity to flip a GOP-held U.S. Senate seat in this election cycle.
With all that new information and likely lots more to come, we know those insiders are bound to ramp up their spending and attacks against Lucas from here.
They’ll do anything it takes to make Hawley look strong in this race and they’re hoping their early investments will give him the edge he needs to win.
That’s why we’re urgently asking for your help today, John. Our grassroots campaign to elect Lucas Kunce is entirely powered by real people like you — not shady mega-donors or corporate elites. So when you donate to our campaign, you’re giving us the ability to fight back against the GOP’s desperate attacks, reach voters in every corner of the state with Lucas’ unifying message, and win this race in November.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:
This is our chance to defeat Josh Hawley and finally take Missouri’s U.S. Senate seat back for everyday people — and we can’t afford to waste it.
Thanks for being part of it,
— Team Lucas Kunce
