FROM THE CAMPAIGN MANAGER'S DESK
Hi there,
July can be a slow month...but not for this campaign!
The last few weeks have been full of big news for our campaign.
Here's what you might have missed:
Our new ad! On July 14, we released our first television ad of
the cycle. The 30-second spot highlights Ben Ray's story of
growing up on a small farm in northern New Mexico with the values
of the community and care that shape our campaign

Our biggest fundraising numbers yet! On July 10, our campaign
released our fundraising totals from the second quarter of the
year (April - June). With $1.5 million raised from people like
you (and not a dollar from corporate PACs!) this past fundraising
quarter was our strongest yet.
1.5 million raised from all 33 New Mexico counties | Average
online donation: $17.28

These strong fundraising numbers will make it possible for our
campaign to reach more voters and hold important community
conversations about what winning this race would mean for New
Mexico. Ben Ray would be New Mexico's first Hispanic senator in
more than 40 years, and victory here and in other Senate races in
the region would lead to a historic Democratic sweep of the
southwest.

Ben Ray has been a proven leader for New Mexico, working to
advance affordable health care, create good jobs, and build our
path to recovery from COVID-19. Electing him to Senate (and
flipping the Senate blue in November!) would be a win for New
Mexico and the country.
New Mexico Voices on COVID-19. Throughout the COVID-19
pandemic, New Mexicans have shown incredible resilience and
community. On July 3, our campaign published "New Mexico Voices
on COVID-19," a collection of stories about how New Mexicans are
coming together in this difficult time. Take a look >>

conversation about ending the corrupting influence of money in
politics. Read more about the conversation and why End Citizens
United has endorsed our campaign here
