Devin reached out to you yesterday to lay out the stakes for Wisconsin in 2026 — and how our Tuesday end-of-quarter fundraising deadline will decide if we’ll succeed in electing Democrats up and down the ballot next year.
It’s a longer email, so here’s a TLDR:
1. Derrick Van Orden is VULNERABLE. WI-03 is a toss-up for the first time in years, and we can’t miss this opportunity to send this MAGA-man to early retirement.
2. Our next Supreme Court election is even sooner — and we need to show Elon Musk and far-right interests that we already rejected their corrupt influence in March, and we’re not going to let them try and buy our elections again.
3. We need boots on the ground to elect our next Democratic Governor — and contacting voters early is exactly how we do that and keep MAGA extremists like Tom Tiffany out of the Governor’s office.
We need to reach our $100,000 end-of-quarter goal by Tuesday at midnight if we want to see these blue victories through. Devin talks about this in more depth below, but if you’re already on board, please rush $10 or any amount our way now.

Hi team, it’s Devin. In a few days, we’re coming up on our FEC mandated end-of-quarter fundraising deadline.
I’m about to tell you what makes this one so important — especially for the future of Wisconsin and our fight to elect Democrats up and down the ballot next year.
But if you already know the stakes, I won’t waste your time — please consider chipping in $10 or any amount to help us reach our critical goal of $100,000 as we prepare for one of the most important election seasons of our lifetime.
Here’s the deal: What we’re witnessing out of Washington right now isn’t politics as usual.
This is a historic and blatant attempt by Donald Trump and his cronies to overwhelm us, divide us, and render us useless against his attacks on our fundamental rights.
He’s openly rigging Congressional maps to grow the Republican majority in Congress, illegally targeting dissidents and political opponents who challenge him, and paving the way for permanent MAGA control in all 50 states.
This isn’t normal — and we can’t act like it is. That’s why we have to seize the opportunities to do something about it next year.
In 2026, we have the chance to flip WI-03 blue and unseat Derrick Van Orden after he voted for Trump’s cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, and critical funding for Wisconsin. For the first time in years, this district is a toss-up. We can’t fall short.
Even sooner is our next Supreme Court Election, in which we can all but guarantee that far-right interests and MAGA billionaires like Elon Musk will pour MILLIONS into our state and try to buy the race once again. We’re organizing everyday to prevent that and elect a justice that represents the people of Wisconsin, not special interests or right-wing extremists.
That’s not all. The race to elect a new Governor will be tight. Governor Evers’ victories were decided by less than 120,000 votes combined. It’s going to come down to voter turnout, and we need boots on the ground right now to power our get-out-the-vote efforts and keep MAGA extremists like Tom Tiffany out of the Governor’s Office.
Reaching our end-of-quarter fundraising goal by midnight on Tuesday is exactly how we show that we’re hitting the ground running and building up the infrastructure we need to ensure blue victories up and down the ballot next year — and we need your support to do it.
These are the stakes. And this is how we fight back. Please, will you join us by chipping in $10 or any amount to our $100,000 end-of-quarter fundraising goal before closing out this email?
