John,
I was raised in Texas, so the fight to flip Texas blue is personal to me.
For Democrats in Texas, that fight has been waged for a long time: The last Presidential candidate to win in Texas was Jimmy Carter, and the last time we had a Democratic Senator or Governor in Texas was in the mid-1990s, with Sen. Bob Krueger and Gov. Ann Richards. Both of them lost their re-elections, and Texas has been red ever since.
But this cycle, we’ve never been closer to flipping Texas blue. We have an incredible slate of candidates running to represent Texas in 2020 -- and the key to winning the White House and flipping Texas blue runs through winning districts like TX-32.
That’s why Colin Allred’s race for re-election is so important, John. Joe Biden can’t win Texas without Colin, and we will likely lose our House Majority without him.
Colin’s facing the last FEC quarterly deadline of the election cycle -- and in order to win, he needs to show his opponent and the country that he has momentum on his side. Can you chip in $5 or whatever you can to power that momentum?
John, Colin Allred successfully flipped his district blue in 2018, unseating a long-term Congressman entrenched in DC interests. His powerful grassroots campaign set an example for Democrats across the country, and since winning his race, he has consistently sided with the people of North Texas.
If we want to win Texas, we have to start by protecting Colin’s seat. That’s why, as he faces this critical deadline, I’m asking for your support.
