Paid for by Osborn for Senate
thank youHi, it's Dan. I had to reach out to personally say thank you. Your support has been invaluable to my campaign.  You didn't give to this campaign because I was the safe bet. You gave because you're tired of millionaires buying Senate seats.   That support is why an independent, union-trained…

A straightforward question

Paid for by Osborn for Senate
No spin, no panic — just an honest question: If you knew for certain that $7 would send a union mechanic to the U.S. Senate instead of a billionaire's son — would you give it? And if you knew that same $7 meant working people finally get a seat at a table full of millionaires who've never clocked in…

Paid for by Osborn for Senate
Who the hell is “Democrat Dan?” In this week's debate, Pete Ricketts said his name at least a dozen times during last night’s debate.  He rambled on and on about this guy. He blamed him for everything wrong in Washington. He practically looked off-stage expecting him to walk out.  I finally had to s…
