Keith Ellison here. I’m running for re-election for Minnesota Attorney General and I’m in the race of my life. The PCCC and I have fought for justice together for YEARS. Today, I'm in a neck-and-neck race for re-election, and I need your help.
You may remember that when Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd in broad daylight, we got him convicted. He is now serving 22 years. We've taken on some of the biggest cases, from Derek Chauvin, to suing Exxon Mobil and the opiods companies.
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 and said he would "take a sledgehammer" to our work protecting consumers from predatory opioid, tobacco, and drug companies.
But even though Jim 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.
- POLITICO is calling me "Minnesota’s Most Vulnerable Progressive."
- Fundraising numbers show we were outraised by Schultz during the last public reporting period.
- 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 at midnight tonight, 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.
Thank you,
Keith Ellison
