Jack, Republicans may have the worst field of Senate candidates EVER. The GOP's top Senate candidate includes an unwavering anti-abortion candidate that paid his mistress to get an abortion and a literal puppy killer—they are a political parody come to life.
But they still have a powerful machine working to get them elected, as Fox News has gone into overdrive to ensure a Republican takeover of the Senate.
It is no longer enough for progressive, independent media like Daily Kos to survive–in order to challenge right-wing outlets, we need to grow and thrive. Can you support the work of Daily Kos by making a $5 donation?

Media Matters compared key U.S. Senate election primetime coverage among the three main cable news networks; Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC. They found that Fox News mentioned key Senate races nearly twice as often as CNN and MSNBC combined. Of course their coverage is one-sided as they blast their audience with attacks on the Democrats and shovel praise on the Republicans.
The problem is that right-wing media, like Fox News, dwarfs progressive outlets, with a huge reach and influence over the American electorate. Fox News has been the highest-rated cable news outlet for years. Republicans just need to flip one single seat to take control of the Senate and Fox News is doing their best to deliver at least one Republican win.
Daily Kos is the country's largest progressive news and activism hub. What does this mean? Not only do we deliver the news, but we provide the tools so our readers and activists can take immediate and meaningful action. This means recruiting volunteers to connect with voters that could determine the outcome in key races like the Senate elections in Pennsylvania and Georgia.
We are quickly closing in on Election Day and Daily Kos is leaving absolutely nothing to chance. We have already recruited over GOTV 40,000 volunteers. Daily Kos is utilizing innovative tools like Vote Forward and Mobilize to connect our volunteers to a wide variety of statistically proven get out the vote opportunities: writing letters and postcards, making phone calls and sending texts, knocking on doors, contacting friends and family, becoming poll workers and assisting with election protection efforts. We do this at a scale few other organizations can match.
Jack, we need your help. Can you donate $5 right now to help Daily Kos recruit volunteers to connect with Democratic voters in the most important races across the country?
