My friend, Mayor Boome

  Friends -- This pandemic has presented us with so many challenges, and more than ever, it’s important that we have the strongest leaders guiding us. My friend, Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome, has been that leader. Since she took office in 2016, she led East Baton Rouge Parish thr…

Send us your pics

Friends,   We had an incredible victory last month.  So many of you stepped up to knock on donors, donate, and get people to the polls. Now, the Governor and First Lady want to show their thanks to you.    We traveled all across this state during the campaign, and you were right …

We did it!

Friends,   We did it. We fought a tough fight and we pulled through. The voters have spoken and I am humbled to continue to serve as Governor of Louisiana. This wouldn't have been possible without your support. Our incredible grassroots community stepped up again and again to provi…

this is your final opportunity to pitch in

  Friends -- In less than 12 hours, voters will be casting their ballots across Louisiana.   As of right now, we're still $3,255 away from hitting our final fundraising goal of this campaign. This is your last chance to make a contribution before voting begins. Can we count on you to ch…

out of time

Friends -- We're almost out of time. Voters will be heading to the polls in a matter of hours and we're coming up short on our final push fundraising goal. We're still $8,725 away and we only have a few hours left.  Tomorrow's runoff is going to be very close and we're fighting for each…

Friends, this is our last fundraising goal of the election

Friends -- The big special interests and national Republican groups think they can swing this election at the last minute to put Eddie Rispone over the top. With the polls showing this race as a dead heat, we can't let up now.  You know how high the stakes are, friend. Years of hard-fou…

One day left

Friends, this is the final day of this campaign. In less than 24 hours, voters will head to the polls to decide this election.  We've fought a tough race. The last time I ran, we were a long shot. A lot of people didn't think we had a chance. This time we've had a record to run on…

48 hours is all we have left

  Friends -- In a little more than 48 hours, this campaign will be over. Voters will have cast their ballots and shortly after that we'll start seeing the returns come in.   Right now, the polls show we have a narrow lead -- but outside money is flooding into the race in these final 48 …

Even more outside money is flooding into our race (fight back now)

Friends -- As we enter the final days of this campaign, national Republicans are getting worried. We've just learned that the Republican National Committee is pumping another $1 million into Louisiana to try and boost Eddie Rispone. With an election as close as this, we can't let this go u…

Against the odds

With only two days left in the campaign, I'm reflecting on my first race for governor, when most people thought I didn't stand a chance. We proved them wrong, against all odds, by sticking to a simple promise: to put Louisiana first. Friends, this race is different from 2015. In m…

toss-up

  Friends -- With only three days to go until the runoff, this race is a toss-up. Recent polls have showed the Governor with a razor-thin lead, but Eddie Rispone and his friends have only been escalating their attacks to try and make up the ground.   With the margin this narrow, we need…

Latest update on our ads

  Friends -- It's looking a lot like we're going to miss the fundraising goal for our response ads. We're still $2,640 away from our goal. If we miss this goal, friends, it means we couldn't keep pace with all of the attacks from Eddie Rispone and his out-of-state friends. In a race th…

We're falling short and may need to take down our response ads

  Friends -- We've been checking the numbers since this morning, and we're still far short of where we need to be to keep our response ads on the air. With the attacks against the Governor escalating, this is very bad news. We're still more than $5,100 short of our grassroots fundraising …

Too close to call (new poll)

  Friends -- A new poll is out today that shows our race is extremely close. The Gray TV poll shows Governor John Bel Edwards leading Eddie Rispone by just two points, 48% to 46%. This poll demonstrates just how close this election could be on Saturday. We've always known this will be …

no low they won't stoop to

  Friends -- We're in the final stretch of this runoff. There's only five days left, and we can't afford to let up. Even today, on Veterans Day, Eddie Rispone and his allies continue to attack the Governor and his military service with phony attacks. We've seen this over and over again du…

this could be our last chance to stay ahead

  Friends, I have bad news: We came about $5,000 short of our fundraising goal last night. Falling short puts us at risk of losing this race, especially when my opponent has millions of dollars to spend attacking me for the next six days. Thankfully, the same generous group of donors i…

this is the opportunity we need to stay ahead

We need you to step up and volunteer, friend.
