Well, friend, we knew this was coming: Now that the runoff election is tightening, our opponent is going low – so we just launched a brand-new TV ad that calls her smears what they are. 

You'd think Kelly Loeffler (R) would have something good to say about herself if she really wanted to represent the people of Georgia. Instead, she's trying her best to smear our campaign by spreading scary-sounding lies about me. But I know if I stay focused on the issues that matter to Georgia families, we'll not only give the people the debate they deserve – we'll also win this race. So that's what I intend to do.

And for the record, we could smell this from a mile away. (You'll have to watch the ad to understand that part!)

But here's the reality: With Senate control at stake, Mitch McConnell and the GOP are flooding this race with negative attack ads, on top of the more than $23 million that Kelly is self-funding to buy this seat, and I simply won't be able to fight back without you.

The ONLY way we can keep this critical ad on the air, flip this seat and make sure the people of Georgia get the facts straight is if grassroots folks like you pitch in right now.

Please, friend, will you give $5 or more now to keep our ad on the air, power us to victory in this runoff election and take back the Senate for Democrats?

Thanks, friend – let's keep up the fight.
