Los Angeles Times -- Endorsement: Send Christy Smith to Congress
John,

We're so proud that Christy has received the endorsement of the Los Angeles Times -- for the third time! But more importantly, the Times is telling the unvarnished truth about Mike Garcia:
"[I]f there is an extremist in the race, it's Garcia, who has described himself as more conservative than most Republicans. And his short tenure in Congress appears to support that. As a staunch abortion foe, one of his first actions was to support legislation to restrict access to legal abortions. Indeed, he's shown to be exactly the shallow, partisan loyalist that his campaign suggested he would be.

Congress has enough political extremists pounding away at the partisan wedge. What it needs are lawmakers more interested in quietly working with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to make government better - lawmakers such as Christy Smith."
It's time to get this shallow partisan loyalist out of office and flip this district back blue. With an average donation of just $22.44, we're running a grassroots campaign that's going head-to-head with a wealthy-special-interest-backed right-winger.

If you're ready for a real leader in the 25th district, chip in $5 or more to send Christy to Congress >>

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

The truth is, Mike Garcia is in Congress to stay the party line and serve his corporate PAC donors line -- not his constituents.

With 30,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the district, we know we can send him packing in November, John, but only if we turn out each and every Democratic vote.

Please, chip in $5 -- or any amount -- right now to help ensure every Democratic ballot is cast by November 3rd. We need to raise $25,000 by midnight on the 18th to stay on track to meet our September fundraising goal, and we can't afford to fall short.

Thanks,

Team Christy
