NEW: After right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel personally spent $15 million to tear down Captain Mark Kelly, recent polls now show Captain Kelly (D) tied with his opponent Blake Masters. Republicans could pour in even more money these last few weeks.
John, meet Peter Thiel. Thiel is an ultra-conservative billionaire who has shocked Arizona’s Senate race by pouring in $15 million to defeat Mark Kelly.
Flipping Arizona’s Senate seat red could clinch the Senate majority for Republicans. That’s why Thiel has thrown his full support behind Blake Masters — a right-wing extremist who supports a federal abortion ban and wants to privatize Social Security.
Peter Thiel has a net worth of more than $7 billion — which means he could flood millions more in the final weeks to overwhelm Mark Kelly with negative attack ads.
We can’t let that happen. Captain Kelly needs our help to fight back right now.
