Here’s what you need to know about the “Flippable Five” and their races:
Mandela is Wisconsin's Lieutenant Governor and a former community organizer, and he’s up against Republican Ron Johnson in a race that’s neck and neck.
Cheri is the first Black woman to serve as Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court, and she could become the first Black woman to represent the state in the Senate, but first, she needs to defeat a Trump-endorsed election denier.
Val, whose mom was a maid and dad worked multiple jobs, knows hard work isn’t paying off the way it should. She’s competing to put working people first, and polls show her race against Marco Rubio is within single digits.
John is Pennsylvania’s Lieutenant Governor, former Mayor of Braddock, and a reliable champion for the Dignity of Work. He’s up against a Trump-backed TV personality and millionaire.
Tim is the son of a single mom from a working-class Ohio town, and as Congressman for OH-13, he puts working Ohioans first. His opponent, J.D. Vance, is a venture capitalist bankrolled by Trump and Big Tech billionaires.
With less than a month left before Election Day, Mandela, Cheri, Val, John, and Tim need our grassroots support. Will you split any amount you can between their campaigns before the day is over?
With gratitude,
Sherrod
