Hi, it’s John Fetterman – Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania + Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate.
|
You wanna talk about why American elections are so messed up, friend? Let’s start with the number 29, because it tells you everything you need to know.
|
👉 The average donation to our campaign for U.S. Senate is $29.
|
In order to raise all the money it takes to win this race for you + me + PA, we’ve received a mind boggling 582,000 contributions. Now, you might be thinking: “Why the hell would John Fetterman need 582,000 $29 donations”?
|
Allow me to explain:
👉 A big super PAC called “Senate Leadership Fund” (name sounds really nice, huh?) booked $29 MILLION+ in TV and radio ads to attack me + boost Dr. Oz.
|
Friend, the GOP is booking TV advertising attacks against Democrats like me nationally. And as much as I hate to admit it, we know from experience that when super PACs beat people over the head with these stupid 30-second ads… they can drag you down in the polls.
|
So I’m emailing you today for something entirely predictable… $29. Because we need to ensure that Democrats like me win in November. And, without a whole bunch of you, we aren’t going to be able to push back against this huge negative ad campaign.
|
So, can you make a $29 donation (or more or less, it really doesn’t matter) to me and Gary Peters? Seriously, every dollar helps when you’re up against this kind of super PAC spending.
|
|
It shouldn’t be this way.
You shouldn’t have to be a gazillionaire like Dr. Oz to run for office.
You shouldn’t have super PACs spending $29 MILLION to try and sink Democrats.
|
But, until we get to the Senate and fight for real campaign finance reform, this is the world we live in. And the only way I know how to beat the Big Money is by energizing as many of YOU as possible to chip in $29 at a time.
|
We’ve got 32 days left, and the attacks are going to get worse and worse from here on out. If you can, please make a $29 donation so that Gary and I don’t fall behind on fundraising + so we can compete toe to toe with the giant super PACs.
|
Me + Gisele + our whole team are so grateful to each and every one of you. It’s because of all our grassroots donors and volunteers and supporters that we have a fighting chance to go up against all that big money and WIN.
