Hi — Our campaign just made a risky decision, and I wanted you to hear about it from me.

Here’s the context: Republicans have launched nasty attack ads against me to mislead voters and stir up support for my right-wing opponent.

The scary thing is, their strategy may be working.

FOUR recent polls show me statistically tied with Eric Hovde, and RealClearPolitics just downgraded our race to a “Toss Up.”

If we let the GOP’s misleading attacks go unanswered, Hovde will continue to surge in the polls and inch ahead in this all-important Senate race.

To fight back, our campaign just launched new ads of our own to set the record straight.

Let me be clear: this was a risky decision. The money wasn’t originally in the budget for September, but I gave the green light anyway.

That means we’re facing a budget deficit — and an uphill battle to keep these ads on the air and reach as many voters as possible across Wisconsin.

This was a tough call, team. But I felt confident taking the risk because I knew I could count on this grassroots team to step up and have my back.
