Hi John,
If you need a reason to pick yourself up and kick today's butt, let me tell you about
Jennifer Kitchen.
After the 2016 election, Jennifer started getting involved in politics. In spite of a chronic pain disorder that made marching and canvassing especially hard, Jennifer kept showing up and organizing her rural community.
In 2019 Jennifer ran for the Virginia House of Delegates and lost -- but won more votes
than any Democrat in her district had before. She almost immediately launched her 2021 campaign but soon after was diagnosed with cancer.
Now in remission, she's running an exponentially stronger campaign than she did the first time around, and she's showing up in rural communities that Democrats have neglected for too long. Jennifer's tenacity and spirit inspire me to keep fighting for progress, and if you listen to today's episode you'll probably feel the same way, John.
Learn how she's going to flip her seat blue on podcatchers now:
