  Hi john — Tomorrow is the big day. It’s Election Day! For months on end, Democrats across the country have been hard at work connecting with voters to explain why our message is the winning one. From protecting Social Security benefits and the Affordable Care Act, to restoring acces…

your $5 will help us win this race

  Hi, john, Sherrod here. In a moment, I'm going to ask you to chip in $5 to split between my campaign and Tina Smith — but first, will you give me a second to explain why your contribution could make all the difference in this race? Political experts are calling me one of the most vu…

Fairness and truth

  Hi, it’s Tammy Baldwin. We got an alarming polling update today, john, and I wanted you to be the first to know: Eric Hovde has officially taken the lead for the first time in public polling — a brand new poll from Trafalgar shows me down by one point, 49-48. This moment has been bu…

Trump is not a “protector” of women

  john — Donald Trump and the GOP are absolutely fixated on controlling women’s bodies. From restricting abortion access to opposing in-vitro fertilization, it seems like Republican leaders think they know women’s bodies better than women themselves. To that, Tina says: Mind your damn…
