Hello,

Republican Super PACs have already spent millions of dollars on TV ads supporting Susan Collins here in Maine.

Susan Collins’ corporate and AIPAC donors are blanketing the state with TV ads because she is the most vulnerable Republican senator in the country. Democrats’ path to take back the Senate runs straight through Maine – but we’ll only be able to win if we can counter their lies and match them on the air.

That’s why I just made one of the most difficult decisions of this campaign yet: I told my team that we could begin airing our own TV ads, even though we don’t technically have all of the money in our budget to do so just yet.

We’re taking this risk because we frankly have no other choice. Defeating Susan Collins and flipping Maine blue is paramount if we’re going to fight back against fascism and protect our democracy. So I made the decision and took the bet that people like you would come through and donate to help us fill our $100,000 budget gap…

We’re going to have to work hard and dig deep if we’re going to finally unseat an entrenched politician like Susan Collins and take back the Senate in 2026. We’re also going to have to take a few calculated risks.

If we’re going to be successful in defeating Susan Collins and flipping Maine blue, I’m counting on people like you to give now and help raise another $100,000 to help fund our first TV ad buy.

I’m not taking money from corporate PACs, AIPAC, or special interests like Big Oil or Big Pharma. Instead, we’re funding our campaign entirely with help from people like you. Please, will you make a monthly donation to our campaign right now – whatever amount you can afford – to keep our new TV ads on the air, defeat Susan Collins, and take back the Senate for Democrats in 2026?

Please use the links in this email to start a monthly donation through ActBlue:

There are going to be a lot of hard spending decisions like this throughout the campaign. I am hoping that I can count on you at every critical step along the way.

In solidarity,

Graham Platner
