Friend,
At midnight tonight, the Michigan Democratic Party will close our fundraising books for the second quarter and start prepping a public fundraising report. This report will show whether Michigan Democrats are ready to win in the 2026 Midterm Election.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. 2026 is already shaping up to be a turning point for Michigan. We have:
- An open Governor’s seat
- An open U.S. Senate seat
- Some of the most competitive U.S. House races in the nation
- Every single seat in the state House and state Senate
- Open Secretary of State and Attorney General seats
Republicans are already plotting their strategy that’s fueled by dark money and billionaire donors who want to buy power.
That’s why we need to focus on our winning grassroots strategy. With your support, we can make sure no Republican goes uncontested and keep Project 83 running year-round. Reaching our fundraising goal today means recruiting more volunteers, training more candidates, and organizing local teams of Democrats in every corner of the state.This work requires serious resources, which is why I’m writing to you today. Friend, can I count on you to fuel the critical work we’re doing right now by making a contribution before our FEC deadline at midnight? Your early investment before 2026 means we can build, organize, and win.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Thank you for being part of this movement. When we build early, we win big.
Onward,
Curtis Hertel
Chair, Michigan Democratic Party
