John,
When I decided to run for Senate against Republican Deb Fischer, my campaign team started asking me really personal questions. Did I have any skeletons in my closet? Anything scandalous that might come out? I told them the truth: No one is perfect, but let Mitch McConnell go digging. He’s not going to find anything interesting.
Still, they warned me: “Politics is a blood sport.” It doesn’t matter if it is true or not… McConnell and his Super PACs will make up lies and say downright awful things about me on every TV across the state. I should prepare myself – and my family – for what will come.
Now, with the first poll of the race showing me LEADING Republican Deb Fischer by 2 points in this critical Senate race, I know they’re right. The attacks are about to get nasty – even if it is all made-up.
Deb Fischer and Mitch McConnell are going to spend millions running ridiculous ads attacking me because they’re afraid. They know what we know: We can defeat Republican Deb Fischer and win this Senate seat. And that scares the hell out of them. They know I’ll be the 51st vote in the Senate for working people.
I’m facing my first federally-mandated FEC fundraising deadline of the year at midnight tonight, and if Mitch McConnell senses even one shred of weakness in our public fundraising report, his Super PACs are going to pounce with attacks to try to bury us before this race even gets started.
But we’re just $10,896 away from our goal and what we need to fight back and win this Senate seat, and I’m counting on grassroots donors like you to give now if we’re going to hit it and defeat Republican Deb Fischer in November:
If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Mitch McConnell and his Super PACs are about to go into overdrive, but I can fight back with your help today.
I’ll never know how to fully express my gratitude to you for being on this team,
Dan Osborn
