I govern by one rule: Put Louisiana First. But as the only Democratic governor in the Deep South on the ballot this year, I have a huge target on my back, and out-of-state special interest groups are throwing everything they've got at me.
It doesn't matter that I've governed in a bipartisan way. It doesn't matter that my administration and I have worked hard for the people of Louisiana, from expanding Medicaid to raising the pay of our public school teachers. To some, all that matters is the "D" next to my name.
Friends, I'm not asking for your support because we may or may not share the same party. I'm asking because I think we have the same hopes for the state of Louisiana. I'm working toward a future where more people have health care, more children have the opportunity to succeed and where women are paid the same as men for the same job. But we can't win this election without resources, and voters are already heading to the polls for early voting.
My campaign has set a goal of getting 100 Election Year Members by midnight tonight to help fund our voter turnout efforts, but right now, we're 56 donations short. Can I count on you to give now so that we can make up the gap, win this election and continue to put Louisiana First?
