It’s not over ‘til it’s over

    Hey John –    Real quick favor to ask you.   With Election Day tomorrow, we’re in a final sprint to reach as many voters as we can. But with an extremely thin margin in our budget, our efforts are coming down to the wire.   We’ll continue to spend the necessary money to…

Election Day is tomorrow

  John,   TOMORROW IS ELECTION DAY.   If you have not yet voted in this crucial midterm election, then tomorrow is your last chance to make your voice heard. You must vote at your assigned polling location between the hours of 7am and 7pm. If you are in line by 7pm, you will b…

The last message I’ll send before Election Day

You should hear this from me, John.   History tells us that Democrats should lose their majorities in Congress in the midterm after a Democrat is elected President. Furthermore, history tells us to expect Republicans to maintain their stranglehold on our state government.   But NEVER in histo…

Fwd: You can have an impact right now

Hi John, it’s Carole, Hank’s campaign manager.   I wanted to be sure you saw this email from our team. It’s absolutely vital that we do everything we can to get out the vote in this election to stop Gov. Kemp from continuing to harm Georgians and to stop the MAGA takeover of Congress.   There’…

You can have an impact right now

  John –    So many of you have contributed to our effort with donations to defend the truth and get out the vote across the district.    We can’t thank you enough. But we’re still missing contributions from most of our supporters, and that puts even more of a burden on those w…

For my former boss

  John,   I’m writing on behalf of my dear friend Congressman Hank Johnson.    Hank is a man of integrity and an effective, substantive legislator.    Before I became an investigative journalist, I served as Hank’s national security aide in the U.S. House of Representative…

Trump wants to overturn even more elections

    It's incredible, John.   The votes haven’t even been counted yet, and Donald Trump is promising to fight the results in any swing states where MAGA candidates lose.     Donate to get out the vote and make the results so crystal clear that not even Trump will be able to …

Six words you need to hear

  John,   President Obama said something here in Georgia last week that we need to talk about:   “Most of the GOP and a whole bunch of these candidates are not even pretending that the rules apply to them anymore. They are just making stuff up.”   Make a donation to help us…

GA early voting ends TODAY

In the immortal words of Peter Frampton...

    “Do you feel like we do?”   Hey John, we wanted to make sure you saw this email Hank sent yesterday (forwarded below).   It’s so important to get to the polls and vote for the people who will fight for all Georgians. Like Hank said, if you haven’t already done so, make a…

President Obama: “Democracy is not self-executing.”

    “Things will not be OK on their own. We have to fight for this. Democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us — working, nurturing, caring for it — not just on Election Day but every day in between. It depends on us as citizens saying ‘this matters.’ This election matter…

This could make all the difference

Hi John, Hank here.   We’re getting on toward our midnight deadline, and we still have $281 to raise to fund our work to get out the vote throughout the district and defend Georgia’s blue wall against right-wing disinformation.   If you’re able, I’m humbly asking for your support to get us t…

Updating you

  Hi John,   Hank’s campaign manager Carole again with a quick update.   We’ve raised nearly $6,300 toward our $7,500 goal. That means we have $1,200 left to raise before midnight tonight in order to meet our goal.   Supporters like you have really stepped up in the last co…

  Today’s our deadline, John.   Before you click away, please give us just 15 seconds.   We have about $2,500 left to raise to meet our goal by MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.    We’ll be able to meet our goal and fully fund our GOTV effort if: 10 people give $250, or 25 people give $1…

It’s GOPTV time

  Hi John,   It’s Hank’s wife, Mereda.   I wanted to let you know that Hank’s taken this news about Steve Bannon trying to intimidate DeKalb voters pretty hard. As I’m sure he’s said to you, this is our home, and these are our friends and family Bannon is lying about.   But…

Fwd: It’s personal.

Hey again John, Carole here.   I wanted to be sure you saw this email from Hank. Now that we’ve raised the goal to $7,500 by midnight TOMORROW, we’ve got our work cut out for us.   We’ve raised $2,981 so far, which means we have to raise $4,519 in the next 36 hours to ensure we have the resour…

It’s personal.

Hi John,   I’ve been thinking lately about Steve Bannon trying to send his henchmen to intimidate voters here in DeKalb County. DeKalb was the epicenter of Democratic victories in 2020. That’s why Republicans are targeting us in 2022.   This is personal to me. Those are my constituents he’s …

This requires all hands on deck

  Hi John — it’s Hank’s campaign manager Carole again!   Hank has asked me to check in on our progress toward our $5,500 end-of-month goal, and I have to be honest: we still have about $5,000 to go. So I’m checking in with you about whether you can make a contribution today. …

Nightmare on MAGA Street

  Our worlds are colliding just before Halloween, John. And it’s every bit as scary as Hank predicted it might be.   Let’s rewind to explain. Hank’s been sounding the alarm about Justice Clarence Thomas’ conflicts of interest when ruling on Trump’s Big Lie and the January 6th…

Who’s polling who?

“Before it is too late”

MAGA Republicans fit into one of two camps...

The GOP keeps comparing Biden to Trump. Great, let’s compare them >>

  John –   It’s downright befuddling to hear Republicans pine for the days of Trump. They talk about how much they miss him and all he did for our country.   But it makes sense, because the GOP is anti-government. They want to portray the government as a foil, a big bad entit…
