Well, that sure didn’t take long, John.

Republican Congressman Randy Feenstra just officially jumped into the Iowa Governor’s race and attacked me on Day One.

I’m clearly living rent free in his head, because he even used his campaign launch video to focus more on attacking me than on helping Iowans. Yeesh.

But I’m not surprised that he feels threatened by our campaign’s momentum. Cook Political Report upgraded our race by TWO ratings when we launched, and election experts are saying this grassroots team has what it takes to defy the odds and win.

To pull off a win in a close race like ours means we need all hands on deck for moments like this to swat down partisan lies and smears. Can I count on you to have my back as this race continues to heat up? If so, please consider chipping in today!

Randy Feenstra and the partisan insiders and special interests propping up his campaign are nervous because they’ve spent the last several months watching this grassroots team.

We’re building something special in Iowa, and proving that Iowans are ready to replace the same old failed leadership that’s taken our state backwards over the last decade.

But hey, this isn’t the first partisan attack aimed at me, and it won’t be the last. What it does mean, however, is that we have to make sure we have enough resources to counter these attacks and spread the truth about me, my values, and my plans for the future.

Winning this race won’t be easy, but support from folks like you makes it possible. Will you please chip in $25 ASAP to help hit our $75,000 End-of-Month fundraising goal and equip my team with the resources we need to win this wide-open competitive race?
