John,
Noah here from Marie’s finance team.
I spend a lot of my days looking at numbers most people would rather avoid: fundraising reports, battleground maps, cash-on-hand totals, outside spending, district margins.
So let me be very direct.
Extremist Republicans are not targeting Marie because this race is symbolic.
They’re targeting her because they think they can win.
This is one of the few districts in the country where a Democrat has proven she can win in Trump territory. That makes Marie dangerous to them. Not just politically, but as proof that Democrats can still earn trust in working-class, independent places when we actually show up and talk like normal people.
That’s why this race matters so much.
And it’s why we cannot afford a slow weekend.
We have a major fundraising deadline Sunday night, and what we raise between now and then will shape what we can do next: voter contact, digital ads, rapid response, mail, and the kind of early organizing that keeps a close race from slipping away.
Will you donate tonight to help Marie defend this seat?
If you’ve stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately.
Marie has beaten the odds before.
But odds don’t beat themselves. People do. Donors do.
Supporters who understand what’s at stake do.
Thanks for stepping up,
Noah
Team Marie
