Hi Friend, it's Jonathan, the Deputy Executive Director of the Kansas Democrats.
I'm leading the Protect the Veto coordinated campaign: an effort directed at capturing the last five battleground seats we need to break the extremist supermajorities in our State Legislature. Chip in here to fund our efforts! >>
Earlier this year, the DLCC marked Kansas as a target state for building Democratic power in the Legislature, and now they've released their top 10 spotlight candidates in the most competitive and critical races across the state, including:
Incumbents with seats we need to defend in the House, like Rep. Allison Houghland in Olathe and Rep. Jason Probst in Hutchinson (who won their races by some of the thinnest margins we've seen in years!)
Incumbents with seats we need to defend in the Senate, like Sen. Jeff Pittman
Challengers to right-wing extremists in the House like Lt. Col. (Ret.) Aimee Bateman, Jacquie Lightcap, Vanessa Vaughn West, and Veronica Gillett
Challengers to out-of-touch MAGA politicians in the Senate like Andrew Mall, Karen Thurlow, and Stacey Knoell
We've got quite a few races to keep our eye on, John. On top of the dozens of other contested races across the state, we can't afford to run out of resources for these critical seats.
That's why we've set one of our largest fundraising goals to date—and the deadline is on MONDAY.
John, our LAST End of Quarter Fundraising Deadline before Election Day is coming fast, and we're still $7,452 away from our goal. Could you chip in today to help us reach it and continue the necessary work to break the supermajorities and protect the veto this fall?
