National Republican Congressional Committee:
“Mike Levin is DOOMED.”
5/26/2022
Hey there, John 👋 -- you’ve got Nate here.
I don't usually give much oxygen to what the GOP says about our race. But this statement warranted a response, because it
really highlights how out of touch the Republicans are in our district.
After the
Cook Political Report downgraded CA-49 to "Lean Democratic'' last week, the Republicans’ DC communications team took a victory lap. They went so far as to say that Mike is as good as "doomed."
This year's race will be tough, there's no denying that. But few folks know better than the GOP that we've won tough races before. They know because they were in the trenches against us,
and in both instances we came out on top. 😁
National Republicans think they can parachute in with big bucks on TV attacks to win an election. Meanwhile, Mike is running a locally-grown, grassroots campaign that's powered by thousands of individuals and a result-oriented focus in Washington.
And don't tell the GOP this, but that's even earned him some Republican support in the district too (who would have thought? 🤷🏻).
Anyways, we're not taking anything for granted headed into the primary. We’re communicating with the new folks who will be voting for Mike for the first time, and we still have some work to do to fully fund our program. If you can, please send in a grassroots donation of $3 today.

Still going strong, 🤫
