My name is Sarah Godlewski, and I'm a Democrat running for the United States Senate to replace Republican Senator Ron Johnson in Wisconsin. I’m only asking for a moment to explain why our race is so important — especially now that a new poll shows our campaign is the only one that can defeat him:
|
Public Policy Polling | Wisconsin
U.S. Senate Poll
Sarah Godlewski (D): 48% (+2) | Ron Johnson (R): 46%

If you're ready to cut to the chase, please split a donation between our campaign in Wisconsin and my friend Heidi Heitkamp right here. Your contribution today will help us defeat Ron Johnson to expand our 50/50 Democratic Senate majority.
|
Wisconsin will be the tipping point for Senate control. With our Senate majority hanging in the balance by just one seat, all eyes will be on our race. CNN has already called Ron Johnson the most vulnerable GOP Senator up in 2022, and The Cook Political Report upgraded Wisconsin from Lean R to Toss-Up. Our race is heating up, and it comes as no surprise.
|
Ron Johnson has been busy undermining vaccination efforts, calling climate change "bullsh--," downplaying the severity of the violent January 6th insurrection, and even falsely claiming mouthwash can kill COVID-19. The Washington Post gave the guy four pinocchios for his "campaign of vaccine misinformation." It’s outrageous that he is still in office!
|
If we can take down Ron Johnson, we can protect and expand our Democratic Senate majority. Let's not kid ourselves, however. Beating a two-term incumbent won’t be easy. Heck, Joe Biden only won Wisconsin by about 20,000 votes. But I have a track record of defeating powerful Republicans in statewide elections — and I intend to defeat Ron Johnson, too.
|
With Donald Trump’s full endorsement and national Republicans all lined up to protect him, it's going to take a real grassroots effort to beat this guy. We’ll need all hands on deck. That’s why I’m personally asking you to chip in to our campaign today.
|
Will you split a donation now to help us defeat Ron Johnson in Wisconsin and support Heidi Heitkamp? Please join EMILY's List and grassroots supporters from across the country to show your support for our campaign as we work to flip this Senate seat from red to blue. Chip in today.

As a fifth-generation Wisconsinite, State Treasurer, working mom, daughter of two public school teachers, and product of a proud union home, I couldn’t be more different than Ron Johnson.
|
When I first ran for public office, it wasn't for fame, money, or power — it was because politicians like Scott Walker slammed the door on workers and families. Wisconsinites deserved to have someone fighting for their best interests, not bending to the will of wealthy donors and corporate interests.
|
Together, I know we can replace Ron Johnson with someone who will work to restore voting rights, create good-paying union jobs, invest in our rural communities, lower the cost of prescription drugs, raise the minimum wage — and end the filibuster if that’s what it takes to get the job done.
|
That's why I decided to run for U.S. Senate, and it’s why I’m humbly asking you to join me in this campaign with a small donation today. We ALL deserve better than Ron Johnson, and this toss-up race could decide control of the U.S. Senate. You can split a contribution right here.
|
Our race is too important to sit out, and Ron Johnson is too dangerous to get another six years in Washington. With your help, we can defeat him and get this seat working for Wisconsin families again.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for all you do to support progressive causes.
