“Democrat Keith Ellison paints 'stark' contrast in attorney general's race”
- Star Tribune
Minnesotans have a clear choice this November, John.
As Attorney General, I’ve been fighting to help people afford their lives and live with dignity, safety, and respect – especially when they have nowhere else to turn for help.
My Republican opponent is a hedge fund lawyer with zero courtroom experience who vowed to “go on offense” attacking reproductive freedom in Minnesota and said he would "take a sledgehammer" to our work protecting consumers from predatory opioid, tobacco, and drug companies.
But even though Schultz is out of touch and unqualified for the job, here’s what we’re up against:
- A recent poll from The Trafalgar Group shows me trailing my anti-choice hedge fund lawyer Republican opponent by FOUR POINTS.
- A Republican PAC capable of raising and spending unlimited amounts of money just launched a $1 million attack ad campaign against me.
- POLITICO is calling me "Minnesota’s Most Vulnerable Progressive."
- Fundraising numbers show we were outraised by Schultz during the last public reporting period.
John, I won with the smallest margin of any Minnesota statewide candidate in 2018, and every indication is this race will be even closer.
After our last public fundraising deadline of the election on October 24, every election analyst, pundit, and GOP mega donor in the country will be waiting to dig through our report so they can gauge the strength in the final days of the race. If we get outraised again, we won’t regain our momentum by Election Day.
To prove that we’re ready to fight like hell to keep the Minnesota Attorney General’s office from falling into the hands of the GOP, we set a public deadline goal of $250,000. And with less than two weeks to get there, it’s clear we need to pick up the pace.
John, you’re one of our most reliable supporters, and I’ve never needed your support more. Can you contribute $10, $25, $50, or more to help us reach our last public deadline goal of the election?
Thank you for everything. Let’s finish strong and win this thing.
