Here’s another critical update on the Maine Senate race, John —

FIRST: A new poll released yesterday showed Sara Gideon surging back into a four-point lead against Republican Senator Susan Collins.

THEN: We’re learning that three right-wing billionaires dumped $1.25 million into a new super PAC to boost Collins’ campaign — and we expect this group to launch nasty attacks against Sara Gideon in the coming weeks.

NOW: We’re scrambling to defend Sara Gideon from Republican attacks just as we’ve regained our momentum, and we need grassroots Democrats like you to make a contribution today to ensure we can do it:

We’re four months away from our best shot to take back our government and end Mitch McConnell’s Senate majority. Maine is critical to our plan right now and that’s why the Republicans are spending so much money to save Susan Collins.

Thanks for stepping up today.
