There’s been a lot of talk about how this race is going to be a tough one for us to win.

But here’s what I want you to know: I’ve been in tough races before when I ran for State Representative, County Commissioner, and Attorney General — and I’ve never lost, because I’ve always had a strong team on my side. I know how important the support of grassroots Democrats is when it comes to down-ballot races, so can you contribute to our campaign so we can keep our down-ballot momentum going in Pennsylvania and to the DLCC to help elect state Democrats across the country?

2004: I won my State Representative race in a Republican district as a Democrat. I knocked on 18,000 doors and wore out two pairs of shoes in the process. I won re-election in my district for three more terms, too.

2011: I ran for the Montgomery County Board of Commissioners and won — marking the first time in history that Republicans lost control of the Board of Commissioners.

2016: I ran for Pennsylvania Attorney General and won with 51% of the vote — at the same time Donald Trump won Pennsylvania, too.

2020: I ran for re-election as the People’s Attorney General — and received more votes than any candidate in Pennsylvania history.

Let me be clear: Down-ballot state Democrats and I need to win this time too because our rights and our freedoms are on the line in Pennsylvania and across the country. I’ve only won races because I’ve had supporters on my side — which is why I'm going to need your help to do this. Can you chip in today to help me win this race and to help the DLCC elect state Democrats nationwide?

I’ve fought and won before, but I’m not taking anything for granted. Neither should any of us. We need everyone off the sidelines and in the game because it’s our time.

Thanks folks,

Josh Shapiro
Democratic Nominee for Pennsylvania Governor
