I’m no stranger to being underestimated.

It’s Peggy Flanagan, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Minnesota.

As a child with severe chronic asthma, I was constantly told what I
wouldn’t be able to do. And I proved them wrong.

When I first ran for school board in 2004, I was up against a crowded
field — including two incumbents — and people told me I had no chance of
winning. I became the youngest person to be elected to the Minneapolis
Board of Education and won the most votes. I proved the doubters wrong.

In 2015, I became only the second Native American woman in the Minnesota
House when I won my special election and proved the doubters wrong.

So now, when I hear folks say we can’t compete with the avalanche of GOP
cash coming our way I know that we will do what we always do, we’re going
to prove the doubters wrong, again.

There will always be doubters, but I’ve always chosen not to listen. I
keep my head down, get the work done, and deliver for the people of
Minnesota.

donation between Tammy Baldwin and I now to help us make history again?

This campaign isn’t about me — it’s about all of us, working together to
defeat extremist billionaires and make sure Minnesotans have a voice in
the U.S. Senate.

That’s why I refuse to take a cent of corporate PAC money. Every dollar we
raise comes from people like you, giving a little bit at a time.

[ [link removed] ]I’m used to being the underdog, and I’m not backing down from this
fight — but Tammy Baldwin and I need people like you standing in my
corner. A lot of folks say they’re building a different kind of campaign,
but we really are and every penny counts. Please help us out with a split
gift today.

💚 Peggy
