re: an update on our numbers

  Team -- Did you see Jon’s email from yesterday? We're facing our biggest FEC deadline of the entire year in a few weeks and we still need to raise another $4,742 by Monday to get us back on track for the month. Can you rush a contribution now to help us meet our critical $10,000 …

an update on our numbers

  Wanted to give you a quick update on our numbers, folks. My team set a weekly goal of raising $10,000 by midnight on Monday to get us back on track for our most important FEC deadline of the year. With just four days to go, we’re still about $6,012 behind. Can I count on you to help…

North Carolina is a toss-up

  Democrats only need to flip four seats to win back the Senate, folks, and our best chance to secure one of those seats is in North Carolina. My friend, Cal Cunningham, is running to defeat Senator Mitch McConnell’s irresponsible agenda and help us take back the Senate. And get this …
