We did it, John! I’m officially the Democratic nominee running for the U.S. Senate here in Delaware!

After launching this campaign over a year ago, we are just one step closer to bringing our Bright Hope mission to the U.S. Senate. I truly could not have done it without your grassroots support that has brought us together at this moment.

But we know that the real race starts right now.

We know that my self-funding opponent will write blank checks to keep his campaign afloat. And our people-powered movement continues to be attacked by far-right activists -- from Ben Shapiro to even Donald Trump’s campaign.

And the debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump was one more reminder of why we need to do everything we can to win a Democratic trifecta in November.

Grassroots supporters like you have stepped up in big moments like this one. And for the next several weeks, we need all hands on deck if we want to make a blue wave.

So if you’re fired up and ready to protect our Democratic Senate majority, flip the House, and elect Vice President Harris and Gov. Tim Walz to the White House, split a contribution of any amount between my campaign and Jim’s to show that we’re ready to fight for our democracy!

Let’s keep our foot on the gas!
