Successful campaigns are all driven by priority, John.
There are internal priorities that we handle ourselves every day, like the budget. And then there are everyone else’s priorities — the ones we can’t control, but could very well determine the outcome of this election.
So before I ask you to join our grassroots movement to defeat Josh Hawley and elect Lucas Kunce this year, please let me tell you more about the situation we have going on in Missouri.
Going into this election cycle, GOP insiders knew Josh Hawley was vulnerable. He was coming down from his stunt on January 6th, which rocked his approval ratings, fundraising, and in-state support base so much that several of his former mentors and mega-donors publicly abandoned his campaign.
But that wasn’t the only reason. Since Hawley’s last election, Missourians have voted overwhelmingly to take back their power by approving ballot measures to raise the minimum wage (2018), expand healthcare (2020), and legalize weed (2022) — signaling a clear break from the control-obsessed politicians like Hawley who’ve taken it upon themselves to rule over our lives.
With all this information, those GOP insiders decided to make Missouri’s U.S. Senate race their top defensive target in 2024. They knew Hawley was weak running against a real warrior for working people like Lucas Kunce, so they’ve prioritized our race — doing, saying, and spending whatever it takes to prop up Hawley and tear Lucas down before voters head to the polls this November.
We’ve seen it since literally the first day of this race, when they called Lucas “unhinged” for wanting to take on a coward like Hawley. And we’ve seen it every quarter since, as they transferred millions directly into Hawley’s campaign.
They know just as well as we do — Hawley is vulnerable, and this election is our opportunity to defeat him and flip Missouri’s U.S. Senate seat.
Now here’s where things get complicated. With so many incumbents in tough races across the country this cycle, Missouri just hasn’t been a priority for the groups we’d typically see shoring up support for campaigns like ours.
That’s why we need your help, John. If enough people like you decide to prioritize our race here in Missouri — which data shows is our most competitive and affordable chance to flip a GOP-held U.S. Senate seat — we’ll be able to pull this off, defeat Josh Hawley, and elect Lucas Kunce this November.
I’m not kidding. Missouri has a smaller electorate and cheaper media markets than other states with targeted flip opportunities, like Texas and Florida. And multiple polls have already shown Lucas and Hawley in a statistical tie for this Senate seat.
Your donation will stretch the furthest in Missouri — and it’ll have more of a direct impact on the outcome of this election. That’s just the truth.
We need you to make Missouri’s U.S. Senate race a priority, John.
