Folks, it’s not a cliche. It’s not an understatement. Our democracy is on the ballot this November.

It’s on the ballot in this race, because I’m facing a MAGA Republican opponent who proudly stood among the violent rioters that attacked our Capitol on January 6th and threatened our democracy, my life, and the life of my colleagues.

It’s on the ballot at the top of the ticket, because Donald Trump and JD Vance have pledged to prosecute their political rivals, sow doubt in our free and fair elections, and test the limits of the Constitution like never before.

And it’s on the ballot in battleground states across the country, where MAGA Republicans are running on an agenda that includes a nationwide abortion ban.

Everything we do between now and Election Day will play a major role in determining the future of our democracy for decades to come — and the single most important thing we can do is get out the vote.

The 2024 election is going to be extremely close. That’s why I’m asking: Will you add your name below and commit to voting for Democrats up and down the ballot this November?

From campaigning for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to supporting New Jersey Democrats like Sue Altman who are running in competitive House races — I’m going all-in to elect leaders who will fight to preserve our democracy for future generations.

This is a generational fight, and I can’t thank you enough for standing alongside me. With everything at stake in this election, we can’t afford anyone to sit on the sidelines.
