I’m used to being the underdog

I’m no stranger to being underestimated, Team.

It’s Peggy Flanagan, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Minnesota.

As a child with severe chronic asthma, I was constantly told what I wouldn’t be able to do. And I proved them wrong.

When I first ran for school board in 2004, I was up against a crowded field — including two incumbents — and people told me I had no chance of winning. I became the youngest person to be elected to the Minneapolis Board of Education and won the most votes. I proved the doubters wrong.

In 2015, I became only the second Native American woman in the Minnesota House when I won my special election and proved the doubters wrong.

So now, when I hear folks say we can’t compete with the avalanche of GOP cash coming our way I know that we will do what we always do, we’re going to prove the doubters wrong, again.

That’s exactly what I’ll do on the Senate floor, Team. Can you split a $10 donation between End Citizens United and I now to help us make history again?

RUSH A CUSTOM AMOUNT NOW >>

This campaign isn’t about me — it’s about all of us, working together to defeat extremist billionaires and make sure Minnesotans have a voice in the U.S. Senate.

That’s why I refuse to take a cent of corporate PAC money. Every dollar we raise comes from people like you, giving a little bit at a time.

I’m used to being the underdog, and I’m not backing down from this fight — but End Citizens United and I need people like you standing in my corner. A lot of folks say they’re building a different kind of campaign, but we really are and every penny counts. Please help us out with a split gift today.

Thank you for everything!

💚 Peggy

Because of the Citizens United ruling, Elon Musk was able to spend almost $300 MILLION to buy our democracy.

And now, we're facing the dire consequences.

We know we send a lot of emails. And you might be wondering why: We aren’t a SuperPAC. We’re not funded by corporate PACs. We spend EVERY DIME so efficiently by running proven effective ads to win the most competitive races, stand up against billionaires, push to pass SWEEPING Campaign Finance Reform, and build our movement.

Friend, when we pass the Constitutional Amendment to overturn Citizens United and save our democracy, you'll be able to say you helped make that happen.

We believe that emails are a crucial way for our campaign to stay in touch with supporters like you. If you'd prefer to receive fewer emails, click here. However, if you'd prefer to unsubscribe, click here. If you'd like to donate, please click here.

Just asking for 30 seconds

Hi, I’m just asking for 30 seconds of your time. I know it’s late, so I’ll be quick.

I’m working around the clock to win this U.S. Senate race here in Ohio, and thanks to supporters like you, the momentum behind our campaign is surging. I’m endlessly inspired by the hundreds of thousands of folks who are joining us in the fight to give working people their voices back in Washington.

Here’s the bad news: Since Senate control is on the line in this race, the GOP is lining up behind my opponent and spending whatever it takes to help him win. They’re pouring $133 million into baseless attack ads against me, and they’re not stopping anytime soon.

We’ve got a 50-50 shot of flipping Ohio and kicking Donald Trump’s lackey out of office, but whether we’re successful depends on grassroots support from folks like you.

So, I have one question for you this Thursday evening: Will you chip in $5 right now to help me fight back against the GOP’s latest spending spree, win in Ohio, and retake the Senate?

YES

YES!!

I don’t rely on massive checks from billionaires and corporate execs to fund this movement – I depend on you. And today, I need you with me.

Thank you,

Sherrod Brown

Note: This email only reflects donations made online with this email address. If you've made a previous contribution via check or with a different email address/phone number, you may not see it here – but know that Sherrod and our entire team are deeply grateful for your support.

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Hey there! It's Sherrod Brown.

There's nobody fighting for Ohioans in the U.S. Senate right now, and I won't sit on the sidelines while working people get screwed over by large corporations and wealthy political donors.

If you work hard, you should be able to afford a decent life. But the reality is, life is too expensive. Costs are going up. Wages are staying stagnant. Working people are working harder than ever before, and they're not getting their share of the profit.

This campaign is all about changing that – and election analysts say we have a strong shot at winning in November.

But I'll need your help to pull it off: My opponent is a Washington insider being propped up by the Republican establishment, and he's got virtually unlimited resources.

That's not how our campaign works. We're a grassroots movement, and that means we rely on ordinary people chipping in a couple bucks. If you're able, please make a donation of any amount today. It could be what helps us flip Ohio and the Senate.

If you'd like to receive exclusive updates from my team, you can text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you.

Elizabeth Warren’s AMAZING plan to EXPAND Social Security benefits >>

Are you deleting my emails?

We’ve been trying to reach you, Team! THIS IS SERIOUS!

Donald Trump just put Social Security on the chopping block…

“They’re going to lose Medicaid, they’re going to lose Social Security, they’re going to lose Medicare, all of those things are going to be gone”

Trump has been threatening Social Security for years, but now he’s finally gone OFF THE RAILS. Thankfully, Elizabeth Warren and other top Democrats are WORKING OVERTIME to boost Social Security benefits by $2,400/year and FULLY FUND Social Security for the next 75 years! So, we're gathering 50,000 signatures on our petition from Democrats who STAND with Elizabeth Warren and believe Congress should save Social Security from Trump's vile plans. Add your name to our petition NOW to DEMAND Congress protect Social Security >>

ADD MY NAME >>

(Please, Team. We still need 213 signatures from Democrats in your city to reach our goal, so we’re keeping our petition open for you. Take just 30 seconds and add your name to our petition right away: https://petition-ecu-social-security.com)

Counting on you,

End Citizens United

I need you to open this email, friend

Hey there,

I am writing today with a very important request for you.

These emails are really important to me. They’re a critical fundraising and organizing tool and a way for me to get in touch with you directly, when it isn’t always possible for me to reach all of you in person.

And what Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook all use to decide whether these emails hit your inbox – or your spam folder – is how many people open them and click on the links.

Friend, you opened this one. It means so much that you care enough to stay engaged and informed about this race. Now, I’m hoping you can do me a solid and click this Youtube link. As a bonus, you’ll get to see a video my team made of my primary night speech in Ohio.

You can watch it here:

I made a promise to never stop fighting for Ohio. Let’s do this.

- Sherrod

P.S. If you have any feedback or thoughts for my team, please feel free to hit ‘reply’ to this email! My team reads through every one and we’d love to hear from you.

Roughly 50-50 odds

I want you to see something:

Election Midterms - Ohio Senate Election Winner - Brown 52% Husted 49%

Look, prediction markets aren’t a crystal ball into the future, but they are windows into how people are thinking and feeling in a given moment – and right now, these roughly 50-50 odds are making me nervous.

The polls, the odds – they’re changing by the minute. With National Republicans doing and spending whatever it takes to defeat me, if we take our foot off the gas for even a second, we could fall behind for good.

A race this close will come down to resources. We can either gamble on this Senate race and leave things to chance – or we can all come together and ensure we have what we need to compete with the GOP and win.

Instead of betting on this race, take a stand to claim your stake in the race that will decide Senate control. Will you chip in what you can today to help me flip Ohio and retake the Senate majority?
