John, we have some exciting news to share:
Truth to Power candidate Karen Carter Peterson is officially moving forward to an April 24 run-off election in the race for Louisiana's 2nd Congressional District!
We're celebrating State Senator Peterson's well-deserved victory, and we're excited to support her over the next month as she continues her fight to represent the people of Louisiana's 2nd District in Washington.
However, she wasn't able to gain more than 50% of the vote, which means her campaign is going to a run-off election on April 24. That's exactly one month from today—and her campaign needs our support now.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your split contribution between Truth to Power and Karen Carter Peterson instantly:
Organizing around run-off elections can be tricky business, John, and they require a lot of resources to pull off. After an initial victory, campaigns have to readjust their strategy, turn out the vote again (and often on much-abbreviated timelines), and make sure that voters are informed on how to cast their ballots.
From now until April 24, it's all hands on deck to make sure that Sen. Peterson can win the run-off and head to Congress to join Rep. Porter and other Truth to Power candidates to speak truth to power, fight for working families, and go against corruption and big money interests.
Momentum is on our side right now, and we have to take advantage of the moment before it's too late. We need your support in these final weeks to bring Sen. Peterson's voice to Washington. There isn't much time to lose.
Thank you,
Truth to Power HQ
