Hi John, it's
Luke Hayes, Jamaal's campaign manager. 

I wanted to update you on the racist mailers that our opponent has been
sending out and how we are intending to respond. On Monday I emailed you
to let you know about the first racist mailer that was sent across the
district, where our opponent deliberately darkened Jamaal's skin. Take a
look for yourself:

Since Monday, we have learned that our opponent has sent out ANOTHER
mailer across the district with the same darkened image of Jamaal. This is
proof that our opponent has doubled down on these racist tactics to win
this election at all cost.

This tactic is frequently used by GOP campaigns to attack Black Democrats
because it has unfortunately shown to be effective. In 2020, the GOP
candidates used this vile tactic against Jamie Harrison and Rev. Raphael
Warnock in the South Carolina and Georgia Senate elections, respectively.
Rev. Warnock still won his election and is now a US Senator but Jaime
Harrison lost by a margin much larger than many predicted.

In order to respond to these racist maillers we need to be reaching people
with our own mailers highlighting the great work Jamaal has done. But
mailers take time to print and mail so our final deadline to raise money
that we can spend on mailers for this primary election is tomorrow at
midnight.

[ [link removed] ]By my calculations we need to raise an additional $21,783 before
midnight tomorrow if we want to hit all of NY-16 with another round of our
own mailers. Can we count on you to rush a $3 donation to
help us reach that goal and fight back against these racist attacks?

We got a wakeup call this week from the very narrow victory of our ally
and fellow Justice Democrat Ilhan Omar. Even with a strong grassroots
canvassing effort, if we are not matching our opponents in every medium
they are communicating to voters through — we can lose ground and lose
votes.

That is why it is absolutely crucial we do not let Jamaal's progressive
message get drowned out by a flood of racist mailers attacking him, and
hit our mailer fundraising goal so we can match our opponents outreach
through the mail.

[ [link removed] ]John,
please chip in whatever you can manage to
help us reach our $21,783 before our mailer deadline tomorrow at midnight.

Let's do this,

Luke Hayes, Campaign Manager
Bowman for Congress
