Friend, I was honored in 2018 to be among a historic wave of women who flipped competitive districts and secured a Democratic House majority.
That wave was driven in large part by candidates like my friend Abigail Spanberger -- a working mom and first-time candidate who was inspired to get off the sidelines and fight for the change she knew her country needed.
I remember the excitement on Election Night 2018 when, after celebrating my own victory and watching returns throughout Virginia, I saw Abigail pull ahead in the final count. She won by 6,784 votes in VA-07, a seat that had routinely voted for Republicans by double digits.
Today, with just over 4 weeks until this year's election, I am asking for help in getting Abigail over the finish line again. Her district is considered a toss-up, the NRCC has been spending heavily on attack ads against her, and her opponent just reported raising nearly $1.8 million in the last quarter.
Every bit of grassroots support will matter in a race as tight as Abigail's. Can you help us raise $10,000 for her this week? Holding VA-07 will go a long way to securing our House majority.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split between Abigail Spanberger and Jennifer Wexton:
Abigail has been a strong voice for health care, education, oversight, national security, and upholding the rule of law in our democracy. She's worked incredibly hard for her constituents, and always puts them first.
I hope to have her as a colleague for years to come, and I'm fired up to do whatever it takes to help her win again.
So will you stand with me today and chip in for Abigail Spanberger?
Thank you so much,
Jennifer
