John, I know the last few days haven’t gone how we’d hoped. 

I’ve been through some tough times in my life. Times when it seemed foolish to hope, when the outcome was uncertain. I got through those tough times by fighting my way to the other side. Today, tomorrow, and the next day, we have to fight. 

With Republican control of the Senate assured, every seat that we win is a check on their control. I won’t shy away from working with anyone if it’s in the best interest of Arizona, but whatever power we retain is a mechanism for fighting the worst that might come our way. 

My race is still too close to call. There are hundreds of thousands of votes yet to be counted. We need to run through the tape and win this seat in Arizona.

Please, make a split donation to my campaign and Blue Amp Action. One last push to victory in Arizona. This matters, John. And I would not be asking you for help if it didn’t.

About Blue Amp 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.
