I needed to share this update with you directly, team: A self-funding GOP millionaire – and one of Donald Trump's yes-men – is running against me for Ohio's Senate seat.

With national Republicans prepared to spend millions on this race and my opponent just raising nearly $350,000 at a massive fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago, I need your immediate grassroots support to fight back ASAP. So I'm personally asking: Will you split a donation between me and Fair Shot PAC right now so we can win in Ohio and keep the Senate blue?

Here's why this is so important: With experts saying that Ohio could decide Senate control, Washington Republicans are doing everything in their power to defeat me and flip the Senate red. The truth is, I'm not scared. But I do know that where Trump goes, GOP dark money follows. That's why I'm personally reaching out to ask for your help.

Unlike my potential opponent, I don’t have a massive personal fortune to pour into this race. Instead, I'm relying on critical support from folks like you, one grassroots donation at a time. So please, will you split $25 or more between me and Fair Shot PAC to help us win in Ohio and keep the Senate blue?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation to Fair Shot PAC and Sherrod Brown will go through immediately:

Thank you for rushing your support to show the strength of this grassroots movement. With you by my side, I know that we'll be able to take on whatever the GOP throws our way – and win.

– Sherrod
