John,
I’m Raphael Warnock, pastor, community activist, and Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Georgia. Adam asked me to reach out and tell you more about my upcoming runoff election this January that could determine control of the U.S. Senate and our ability to make progress — and how we’re depending on grassroots support from folks like you to help us win.
I'm in the fight of my life against unelected Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler to flip Georgia's Senate seat blue. And according to The Washington Post, what happens here could determine whether Democrats are able to control the Senate and make real progress for Georgia, and the American people.
Right now, our momentum is unbelievable: After starting this campaign trailing our GOP opponent, our people-powered movement surged into first place during November’s general election – something pundits said was impossible just a few months ago. Now, we've forced a head-to-head runoff election with Kelly Loeffler on January 5th – and experts from Nate Silver to NBC News say we can really win this thing. In other words: We're within striking distance of defeating the Republicans and making history.
Here's the bad news: With all eyes on Georgia, Loeffler is spending over $20 MILLION of her personal fortune to defeat me, and the GOP is funneling in millions more to buy this seat for Mitch McConnell and block the Democratic agenda. Experts say this could be the most expensive race in history.
With Republicans spending MILLIONS to defeat me and keep this seat red, I need a surge of grassroots support between now and January to help us get out the vote and win.
So, John, will you give $10 or more right now to defeat the GOP and flip this Georgia seat blue?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation will go through immediately:
There's far more than a Senate seat on the line in this race. My opponent is a far-right Trump loyalist who has run a campaign of divisiveness and bigotry.
Meanwhile, I'm a pastor who's devoted my life to service – and in January, I could become Georgia's first-ever Black senator. With health care, economic relief for working families, and more on the line, we simply can't afford to send another Trump Republican to Washington.
Every single donation can make the difference in this runoff, and with January getting closer, time is running out for us to get out the vote and ensure we have the turnout we need to win.
Please, if you’re in a position to do so, split a donation to our campaigns today to help us take back the Senate on January 5th and move Georgia and our country forward on a path to progress.
Thanks for pitching in at this historic moment.
Rev. Raphael Warnock
