John – The polls are open here in Texas, and the stakes are sky high today.

We’ve seen low turnout in every election so far this cycle, but the turnout in this runoff has been even lower than usual. And that’s a recipe for a close race.

A screenshot of a headline and text from CBS Austin. The headline reads: “Low turnout likely to play a major role in important primary runoff races.” The quoted text reads: “Despite the fact Tuesday’s primary runoff will decide the parties’ nominees for very important seats for the November general election, the early voting turnout has predictably not reflected that, adn could be the deciding factor in many races. As of the end of day Thursday, the combined early voting turnout between the Republican and Democratic primary runoffs sat at 3.2%.”

We’ve seen close elections before with Brand New Congress. Last year we were the only national organization to back Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick in the FL-20 special election. BNC’s early support helped Sheila win her primary by FIVE votes, and those five votes put her in Congress.

Five, 10, or 50 votes could determine whether or not we oust an anti-abortion Democrat under federal investigation, and send Jessica Cisneros to Congress to fight for us.

While we’re waiting for results today, we’re also gearing up for our next set of primaries on June 7th – just two weeks from now – when four more BNC candidates are on the ballot. Can you pitch in $25, $50, or even $100 now to keep our GOTV engine running?

In 2018, BNC recruited unknown, underdog candidates, and no one expected us to win – until we did. That year we helped one of our first recruits, AOC, defeat the 4th most powerful Democrat in the House.

In 2020, the establishment knew we were coming, but still underestimated us. Despite the pandemic we helped Cori Bush, BNC’s first ever candidate, defeat a 50 year political dynasty, and Jamaal Bowman defeat another powerful incumbent.

This year, the establishment is spending BIG to stop us. Conservative issue PACs and other dark money groups have dumped MILLIONS of dollars into races against BNC candidates. In Jessica’s race alone, AIPAC has spent over $1.8M to protect a conservative, anti-abortion Democrat and thwart our movement.

But we are not deterred, because the harder they fight us, the more we organize.

Pitch in now to make sure BNC has the resources in place to turn out every single vote – today, on June 7th, and for all our elections to come.

See you at the polls,

Team BNC

Since 2016 BNC has led the way in advancing popular policies like Medicare for All and the Green New Deal. We invest EARLY to help grassroots candidates succeed. We recruited and elected AOC in 2018 and Cori Bush in 2020 alongside Jamaal Bowman and Rashida Tliab. And we have our first win of 2022: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick won her primary by FIVE votes thanks to BNC.

We have elections from now until November, and our candidates are counting on your support. Pitch in today and join us as we take over Congress and return power to the people.
