John,

We wanted to share some photos with you of DFA staff working on the ground this year to help elect progressives across the country, but before we do that let me give you a brief update on what we’ve accomplished in 2021.

In just the first 6 months of 2021, we have already run 22 elections, including victories in two pivotal Georgia senate races, historic mayoral races in St. Louis and Buffalo, and a District Attorney race in Manhattan. And now we are moving onto Ohio to help elect Nina Turner.

With early voting in Ohio starting on the 7th, I do need to cut to the chase: The more resources we have the more we can do and the more races we can win. Will you make a donation today of $5 -- or more -- to help us as we work to bring Nina Turner to victory?

Now, here are just a few photos of the work we’ve done this year -- so you can see the on-the-ground impact of your support for our work as we take these critical campaigns over the top.

Yvette and Tishaura
To the left is our CEO Yvette Simpson and in the center is Tishaura Jones. Our fight to build progressive power and win includes our early support of Tishaura Jones in her St. Louis mayoral race. Jones won and became the cities first black female mayor.

Our Chief of Staff Amanda Ford (left) and Our Chief Political Officer Chris Scott (right) worked day in and day out to help Jennifer Carroll Foy and progressives across Virginia.

We were also early supporters of Maya Wiley in her New York City mayoral race.

We worked with Alvin Bragg to help make him become the first Black person to ever become Manhattan District Attorney.

Our Grassroots Power Builder Nelson Pierce (left) and our CEO Yvette Simpson (right) canvassed across New Orleans to help elect Karen Carter Peterson.

Thanks to you, we provide critical support to campaigns at all levels of office and every dollar we raise is put right to work!

And let’s be completely clear: Because we spend and support candidates dynamically based on their up-to-the-moment needs and targets in real-time, it’s never too late to support our work.

With voters heading to the polls in Ohio this week please consider making an investment in our work as we bring progressives to victory in this year’s elections.

Thank you for all that you have done for DFA and for giving us this chance to make a very big difference for these great candidates!

-The DFA Team
