John,
When Kina Collins decided to challenge an entrenched incumbent, she knew it was going to be tough. Kina’s opponent, Congressman Danny Davis, has accepted more than $546,000 in PAC donations, including hundreds of thousands from insurance companies, Wall Street, and Big Pharma. But Justice Democrats facing well-funded establishment opponents aren’t just at a fundraising disadvantage.
Recently, the Illinois Democratic Party outright rejected Kina’s request for access to Votebuilder, a Democratic voter database — which they gave to Rep. Davis FOR FREE.
Without access to Votebuilder, we’ll need to find an alternative to run the field campaign necessary to win this race. Will you split a contribution between Justice Democrats and Kina Collins to ensure that we can cover this expense? We’ll need every dollar of support to defeat the corporate Democrat in this race.
Justice Democrats provides candidates the necessary campaign infrastructure, like fundraising, organizing, and technology, that institutions like state Democratic parties routinely deny to candidates just because they are challenging corporate incumbents.
Kina Collins and Rep. Danny Davis are on an uneven playing field, but when you split a contribution to Justice Democrats and Kina Collins, you help make up the difference. That is why we’re asking: can you split a contribution between Justice Democrats and Kina Collins today?
Kina may not have the Democratic establishment behind her, but we have a movement behind her to help win this primary. Your support means the world to her and to us.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
