An A-rated pollster by Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight shows a concerning trend in Minnesota’s Senate race:
9/4 - 9/7: Tina Smith 47% - Jason Lewis 36% (+11)
10/1 - 10/6: Tina Smith 44% - Jason Lewis 37% (+7)
10/16 - 10/20: Tina Smith 43% - Jason Lewis 42% (+1)
Tina has lost a lot of ground in the polls while our opponent has gained on us. Now, he’s within ONE POINT of our campaign in the closing days of this election.

Help us raise $250,000 to re-elect Tina Smith by the end of the month — add a donation of $3 or more today. Anything you can chip in will go a long way toward winning this election:
