John, my uncle has been relentlessly campaigning in our home state of New York.
He had a rally in Long Island a few weeks ago that drew thousands — and he just announced that he’s already coming back for a second one at Madison Square Garden later this month.
Why is he going all in on a deep-blue state at the height of campaign season? He knows that battleground down-ballot races in New York could decide the fate of the House, so he’s doing everything he can to give the state’s Republican candidates a boost in publicity and fundraising in the final days before Election Day.
New York Democrats need a surge of grassroots support right now to counteract the “Donald” effect — rush a donation to our Rapid Response Fund to ensure Democrats running in toss-up races have the resources they need to WIN so that we can flip back the House!
We know that New York is a blue state when it comes to statewide elections — but all bets are off when it comes to the rest of the races on the ticket.
Republicans successfully flipped four House districts in the state in 2022, which was critical to maintaining their majority. But with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz at the top of the ticket, we have a chance to win back what we lost — most of the districts that went red last cycle were won by margins of less than 4 points. A contribution to our Rapid Response Fund will help support these key races:
- NY-17 (Rated “Toss Up” by the Cook Political Report): Former Democratic Congressman Mondaire Jones was a member of the most productive Congress in modern history after he won the election in 2020. His Republican opponent won the seat by a razor-thin margin of less than 1 point last cycle. Chip in to help return Jones to Washington to finish the work he started!
- NY-19 (Rated “Toss Up” by the Cook Political Report): In 2022, Democrat Josh Riley came within 1.6 points of defeating Republican Marc Molinaro after a long redistricting process. As an attorney and public servant, Riley is ready to fight for working families in Washington. Pitch in to help take back this Biden-won seat!
- NY-22 (Rated “Lean Democrat” by the Cook Political Report): As a former teacher and NY state senator, Democrat Josh Mannion advocated for teachers and students and secured more funding for schools. He’s running to flip NY-22, one of 17 Republican-held districts that voted for Biden in 2020. Chip in to help win this battleground race!

Many Democratic operatives were caught off guard by our losses in New York last cycle. The stakes couldn’t be higher — we can’t let them catch us unprepared this time. We can and we will win.
We need all hands on deck,
Mary Trump
