[ [link removed]- ]TAMMY BALDWIN FOR SENATE
I know my
team and I have been reaching out a lot about my reelection race, so today
I want to tell you about my very first campaign:
When I first ran for Congress in Wisconsin in 1997, no one thought I could
win — especially when an extremely popular challenger jumped into the
race.
I remember huddling with one of my staffers at the time, and she said,
“Well Tammy, maybe you want to rethink what you’re doing because it’s
going to be tough."
I looked her right in the eye and asked, “Do you think I should wait my
turn?”
The next thing I said was this: I believe that women have to run —
especially when it’s hard — and not wait our turn. We can’t wait until we
get a tap on our shoulder or we’ll never get anywhere.
I ended up winning that race and became the very first woman elected to
the House of Representatives from Wisconsin. And it wouldn’t be the last
time our team would make history.
When I ran for U.S. Senate in 2012, an incredible team of grassroots
supporters like you fought alongside me — even as some people wrote us
off. You helped me become the first woman elected to the Senate from our
state and the first openly gay Senator in our nation’s history.
In 2018, despite being a top target for national Republicans and enduring
over a year of attacks, you stood with me again, and we won.
I’m used to being written off. But time and again,
grassroots supporters like you have helped us defy the odds. The battle to
protect my seat this year will be no different, with this race being my
toughest election yet.
Eric Hovde and his Republican allies have already spent more than $43
million to buy this seat, and recent polls are showing this race
statistically tied. Protecting this seat won’t be easy, but together, I
know we can defy the odds once again.
