Pence in MN

  Hello — Whenever Donald Trump or one of his campaign surrogates visit Minnesota, they attack me. That's why I have no doubt Mike Pence will launch a new attack on our campaign as he returns to Minnesota today — especially now that a new poll shows our Senate race in a statistical ti…

These headlines spell disaster

  Ugh, look at these headlines we woke up to today — just as Mike Pence returns to Minnesota: “Tina Smith and Jason Lewis tied in Minnesota” (The Hill) “Smith, Lewis Senate race now a dead heat” (KSTP) “Minnesota Senate race dramatically narrows in poll just before election” (Fox News…

We’ve lost ground in the polls

  Hello — I know my team has been bombarding you with requests, and I wouldn’t have allowed it if the situation wasn’t this critical. Republican dark money groups have it out for me — they can just write a check and drop nearly a million dollars into Minnesota — and falling behind on …

One-point race

  First, a new poll came out showing Minnesota’s Senate race down to ONE POINT and the presidential race narrowing. Then, the Trump campaign announced they were sending Mike Pence to Minnesota tomorrow to rile up the right-wing base and give our opponent a boost. Now, Trump’s campaign…

Tina Smith

  Throughout my life, I have had the great pleasure of working alongside some pretty incredible women — women who have been on the frontlines, leading the movements that have moved our country forward. One of these trailblazing women is my friend, Senator Tina Smith. When Tina worked…

I hate to bother you

  I know you’d rather spend your Sunday relaxing or spending time with your family than reading an email, so I’ll keep this short. Our early lead in the polls is now down to just one point, and we’re expecting even more attacks against us in the final days of this race. Can you pitch …

68%

  I know it's early, but I've been awake for a while. Our final fundraising deadline of the campaign is coming up fast and I'm worried we won't hit our goal. We’re only 68% of the way there — but with your help, we can make it. Please, rush in $3 right now to help our campaign win thi…

Bad news

  I have some bad news: Our campaign has missed every single one of our daily fundraising goals in the last week — not by a lot, but enough to make a difference. Those small gaps have added up, and now we’re facing a significant shortfall in our budget. Look, I’m not panicking quite y…

Re: Trump’s campaign manager

I’ll keep this short

We are so close

  We’re in the middle of the most important election in our country’s history, and Donald Trump knows his pathway to a second term goes right through Minnesota. He only lost Minnesota by 1.5 points in 2016, and now his campaign and GOP special interest groups are dumping money into th…

A concerning trend in Minnesota’s Senate race

  An A-rated pollster by Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight shows a concerning trend in Minnesota’s Senate race: 9/4 - 9/7: Tina Smith 47% - Jason Lewis 36% (+11) 10/1 - 10/6: Tina Smith 44% - Jason Lewis 37% (+7) 10/16 - 10/20: Tina Smith 43% - Jason Lewis 42% (+1) Tina has lost a lot of …

re: October surprise!

  I’m anxious. A new poll out of Minnesota shows Tina Smith’s lead has vanished. With only a few days left, this is now a one-point Senate race. Look, I have seen some of the best campaigns lose narrow leads at the last minute — and I’ve seen it enough times to know you can’t count yo…

A dead heat

  Hello — A new poll out of Minnesota shows us locked in a statistical tie with Jason Lewis — 43% to 42% Even worse, the press is saying Tina Smith is “in a dogfight to keep her Senate seat after her once double-digit lead dwindled to a one-point lead.” Remember what we’ve been saying…
