! We’ve got some BIG news.
It’s official: Our campaign to elect Mike Espy for U.S. Senate raised over $4 million in Quarter 3 (July to September)!
But what’s even more impressive is how we raised it: From more than 100,000 new individual donors, with an average online contribution of just $27. And it’s all thanks to grassroots donors like you. Thank you!
Our record-breaking $4 million fundraising haul has never been done before in Mississippi, a state that’s been overlooked by the national party for decades. And get this: $4 million is 20 times greater than what Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith raised in the second quarter, and DOUBLE what she’s raised her entire campaign.
Thanks to you, we now have more resources to get our Get Out the Vote program off the ground, supply our organizers and volunteers with PPE, and keep our ads on air. And thanks to you, we’ve kept the momentum up so far. In the first two days of October alone, our campaign raised over $1.35 million.
This surge in grassroots fundraising is a total game changer in our race.
But, we can’t afford to become complacent, not when there’s only 29 days left until Election Day. Knowing how big money works in Washington, there’s no doubt Cindy Hyde-Smith will call up her pal Mitch McConnell and ask for help from his dark money fundraising network during these final weeks — if she hasn’t already.
We’re so close to making history again in Mississippi by electing Mike Espy to the U.S. Senate, and we’re running out of time. Please make a grassroots donation of $10, or whatever you can, to have a direct impact on our 1-point race.

So one last time, from Mike and all of Team Espy, THANK YOU! Let’s keep it up.
