John -- I wanted to make sure you saw our big news from Friday night: Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has officially WON the FL-20 Democratic primary! Brand New Congress is the only national organization that backed Sheila’s campaign from the beginning of this special election. And that support paid off when she won her race by just SIX VOTES on Friday. Sheila’s general election is on January 11th, and less than two months later we face our next primary -- Jessica Cisneros in TX-28 and Jessica Mason in TX-30. Your support with a $50 or $25 contribution right now can make the difference in both of those races and all the others to follow. If you missed my message on Friday night, check it out below. And from the entire BNC family: Congratulations to Sheila and her entire team for this hard won fight! On to the next victory, Adrienne Bell ---------- Forwarded message --------- John -- After a nail-biting election night and a mandatory hand-recount, it’s official: Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has WON the FL-20 primary! This was no easy win, John, and without question, BNC supporters made a difference. Sheila won this race by just 6 votes!
So if you phone-banked or sent texts for Sheila, or if you were one of the volunteers knocking doors, this victory is yours as well -- and we are grateful.
