catholicvote | election 2016

Dear CV Friend,

It’s almost Labor Day weekend...

So I wanted to share three quick things:

Trump’s Hispanic Support Surging

Mainstream media sources are reporting that President Trump’s support among Hispanics is way up over his 2016 numbers. Remember, Trump won 28% of the Hispanic vote in 2016 -- more than Mitt Romney secured -- despite the perception that a border wall would hurt his chances.

A new national poll from Quinnipiac has President Trump at 36% support with Hispanics (+8 points over 2016 numbers). This could be a game-changer in Florida, Arizona and Nevada -- states Biden must win to capture the White House.

“Catholics4Biden” Call

Catholics for Biden? Last night a tiny group tuned in to a “Catholics4Biden” campaign call to hear from Sister Simone Campbell (Nuns on the Bus) and pro-abortion Catholic Senator Dick Durbin. Remember, Sister Simone was recently asked whether abortion should be legal, and said: “That is not our issue. That is not it. It is above my pay grade.”

Author Austin Ruse watched this Zoom call and noted: “Whatever is prudential; they want to make dogmatic, and whatever is dogmatic has become prudential.” So true.

CV’s Army on the Move

It’s obvious to me that “Catholics4Biden” is an effort to blunt what we have built. And justifiably so. They know we’ve assembled a juggernaut. We now have full-time staff in 7 of the biggest swing states, and are approaching 2,000 community captains. Our teams are reaching as many as 5,000 Catholic voters per state -- every day.

And the best is yet to come.

I promised you the largest Catholic voter outreach program in history.

Your support has made this possible.

But hang on, because next week … we light an even bigger rocket.

Wishing you a restful and happy Labor Day.

Brian
