Just want to say thank you

Herbert, Blake here, I promise not to take much of your time. I just want to say thank you. We have received an incredible wave of support these last few weeks. So many of you have shown up, chipped in, spread the word, and helped us build something real here in the North Country. It means …

The reality of this race ⭕️

Herbert, While Blake is building a grassroots movement from the ground up, on the other side, there are real challenges we cannot ignore. So we want to be clear about what this campaign is up against: ⭕️ A self-funded opponent who has already poured millions into this race. ⭕️ Political endorseme…

This matters more than you think

Herbert, We’re halfway into April, and while our next monthly fundraising deadline might seem a ways off, the truth is we’re at the start of a new quarter. The momentum we build right now will decide how competitive we can be in the months ahead. But before I ask you to chip in $4 to help us s…

Not your average candidate

I’m not a career politician. I’m a dairy farmer. Hard work is ingrained in who I am. Waking up before the sun rises. Feeding the herd, whether it rains or snows. Staying on my feet all day, making sure I can provide for my family and my employees. Doing whatever it takes to keep the farm going…

Preparing for what’s ahead

Herbert, April might seem like a slow month, but the truth is this race is only going to get more competitive from here. So our team is getting all hands on deck to prepare for what’s coming next: 🔵 Our opponent has already put in over $7.5 million, and we're preparing for him to add even more…

Giuliani has officially endorsed Constantino

Rudy Giuliani just endorsed Blake’s opponent, Anthony Constantino. Let’s be clear about what that means: It confirms what we already knew. If elected, Constantino will be part of the MAGA political machine. This kind of endorsement doesn't come without expectations. It means that more national po…

For the first time in YEARS

It’s been a year since President Trump withdrew Elise Stefanik’s nomination to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. At the time, Washington Republicans did everything they could to keep her in Congress. But in the end, she walked away — and now, for the first time in years, this seat i…

Constantino in trouble again

Herbert, Reports are now raising questions about Anthony Constantino’s campaign, including whether campaign funds were used to help his own business. This is exactly why people have lost faith in the system. When campaigns become a tool for personal gain, it undermines our government. It te…
