John, I know people have a lot of questions about this race. I wanted to take some time today to address five of those questions and make sure you’re up to speed.

What is the state of the race right now?

It’s a close, tough race John. Public polling shows this race is close, and Pennsylvania is the swingiest of swing states. We knew from that start that this would be a tight race — and we cannot lift our feet off of the gas right now.

How can I help?

The best way you can help right now is by investing in this campaign. It takes a lot of resources to reach out to voters, put our ads up on the air, and make sure we’re exploring every possible option at our disposal to gain a decisive edge over our opponent. If you’re able, I’d really appreciate it if you could click here to donate to this campaign today.

What’s the deal with your opponent?

Well, my opponent — Doug Mastriano — is probably the most extreme Gubernatorial candidate in the entire country. He was at the insurrection on January 6th last year, wants to ban all abortions with zero exceptions, is campaigning with violent extremists, and thinks same-sex marriage should “absolutely not” exist.

What is the number one challenge for the campaign?

Despite Mastriano’s dangerous, extreme stances, he has a loud base of grassroots support. That’s why our campaign is committed to recruiting voters from traditionally Republican, rural counties, and reaching out to Pennsylvanians in all 67 counties. We can mobilize this coalition to give us a winning edge over Mastriano’s base in this race.

What’s your plan to win this election?

To win a battleground like Pennsylvania, it takes a massive team of staffers, organizers, and volunteers working in every county in Pennsylvania to reach out to and engage with voters. We need to meet Pennsylvanians where they are now — not just at their doors but on TV, in online spaces, and throughout their communities. And it can’t just be me talking to voters — we need to recruit passionate supporters to talk to their friends and family about why we have to win this race.

But to execute that strategy, John — I need your support. This is a team effort, so will you please donate any amount today to make sure we win on November 8th?

Thank you,

Josh Shapiro
