Here’s the good news, John: Democratic enthusiasm is at an all-time high. Kamala Harris is climbing in the polls, and our chances of holding the White House and the Senate are getting stronger.

I’m going to be blunt, though: good polls and good ratings don’t win elections.

We’ve got a little over nine weeks left until Election Day, and we’ve seen that in this political climate, things can change in an instant. Viral moments and enthusiasm have their place in building excitement, but I have always believed that hard work, grit, and relentless on-the-ground effort is what actually wins elections.

We can look at models all day long, but if we don’t put in the real effort — on the ground, face-to-face conversations that reach people where they are — we might as well hand the election to Donald Trump.

We have to keep pushing until the very last ballot is cast on November 5th. Make a donation today toward my end-of-month goal to help me elect Democrats up and down the ballot and together, we’ll show the country what determination looks like >>
