Karl Rove is back, friends.

And this time he's in Ohio, meddling in our state Supreme Court races for 2020. And why would Karl Rove care about the Ohio Supreme Court?

One word: gerrymandering.

Ohio Republicans are desperate to rig Ohio's districts for another decade, but if we win the state Supreme Court races on the ballot this year, we can stop them.

If you want to fight back against Karl Rove's attacks and end gerrymandering in Ohio once and for all, chip in whatever you can now to our Supreme Court Fund.

In 2010, national Republicans and right-wing special interests came up with a plan called REDMAP to dump dark money into state races that would influence redistricting for the coming decade. Here in Ohio, they took back control of the legislature and statewide offices and proceeded to draw the most gerrymandered map in the state's history.

The legal challenge to those gerrymandered districts ended up before -- you guessed it -- the Ohio Supreme Court, which voted 4-3 to uphold the maps.

In 2020, we have the opportunity to take a 4-3 majority on the Supreme Court and ensure the legislature draws fair maps -- which is what clear majorities of Ohioans voted for when they backed redistricting reform not once, but twice.

That's what Karl Rove and national Republicans are so afraid of -- an Ohio Supreme Court that will stand up for everyday Ohioans.

Our candidates, Judge John P. O'Donnell and Judge Jennifer Brunner, are running strong races. They can win, but the dark-money attack ads are coming fast. We need to be able to respond.

We've raised more than $40,000 online in the past week, but we really need another $13,000 to fill our budget gap and keep our digital ads running through Election Day.

Can we count on you to support our Supreme Court Fund right now? Every few bucks makes a big difference.

Let's win this (and defeat Karl Rove),
