There has never been a week like this before, and the grassroots surge in support we’ve seen is lifting up Democrats up and down the ballot, including Andrea. But the last thing we can do right now is get complacent. Because this is not a fight we want to fall just short in. If we’re going to win this race, and make good on all the hope we’re feeling right now, we need to dig deep and keep working.
Here are three numbers that summarize what we’re facing here in OR-06. 50.1%. That’s the bare, bare majority of the vote Andrea won with in 2022, when she faced the very same Republican opponent we’re up against this year. The race was so close that we didn’t know the outcome for days after polls closed — and we were beyond thankful for every single dollar we had to make our case to the voters. $11,000,000. That’s how much money the two leading Republican super PACs have committed to running attack ads in our media market so far. It’s a jaw-dropping sum of money — and it shows that they know as well as we do that the road to a House majority runs through Oregon. 5. That’s how many people we are hoping can pitch into our campaign from 19125 after we send out today’s email. We’d love it if you could be one of them!
