We’ve sent a ton of emails and texts your way about Ruben’s efforts to defend Arizona and how important your donations are to making sure we defeat Kari Lake. 

But we wanted to make sure you saw these numbers specifically:

2.4%. That’s the amount Mark Kelly won by in 2020. 

0.3%. That’s the amount Joe Biden beat Donald Trump by in 2020. 

0.67%. That’s the amount Kari Lake lost by in 2022. 

$150 million. That’s how much money is being spent on political television advertisements this fall in Arizona. 

$30. That’s our average donation over the last week.  

People have a way of forgetting just how competitive Arizona is. Forget the polls. This race is just as close as any of the last decade, and it’s just as expensive, too. 

We have a little over a week until we close out October, the last full month before the election. $30, or anything you can afford, would go a long way towards helping us hit our goals between now and then. 

What do you say?

Can you make a split donation between our campaign and Blue Amp Action of $30 today? Less than that is totally fine. More is also very welcome. But October 31st will be here before you know it, and we need to hit our goals to defend Arizona and take back this seat.

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
