I'm asking you to make a $3 contribution before tonight’s end-of-month fundraising deadline ends.

The only way we are going to raise what it takes to win is from lots and lots of people chipping in. Team - One of the hardest parts of running for Senate is the absurd amount of money that it takes to build a successful campaign. Let me be clear: I am not accepting any corporate PAC mon…

You haven't made an online donation for Mandela yet

It's not just about how much money we raise…equally as important is the number of people funding this campaign. We'll be blunt: it's going to take an absurd amount of resources in order to flip Wisconsin's Senate seat. Mandela simply cannot do it alone. That's why it's very important that …
