I’m officially the Democratic Nominee for U.S. Senate in Ohio

I want you to be the first to see this: I’m officially facing off against Jon Husted for Ohio’s Senate seat.

So much hard work has brought us to this point, and I’m beyond grateful to everyone who has devoted their time, energy, and dollars to support my campaign so far. Because of you, Ohio is in play and we have a serious shot of flipping this seat and retaking a Senate majority.

But the truth is, it’s only getting harder from here.

Experts agree that Ohio is one of the most likely seats to flip this year, and it’s the key state in our path to Senate control. National Republicans have already poured a tsunami of outside resources into Ohio to attack me and my record – and I can guarantee they’re about to unleash a new wave of attacks.

I’ll have more to say soon, but in the meantime, I have to candidly ask for your support. We’re entering a brand-new phase of this race, and I need you by my side.

Can I count on you to have my back? Any donation will make a difference in this new phase of our race – no matter the amount.

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

Personal message from Sherrod: I didn’t plan on running for office again.

But when I saw how these guys in Washington are only looking out for their billionaire friends and special interests, I knew I had to get back in the fight.

This grassroots movement is about fighting back against a rigged system that benefits the wealthy and well-connected, while working people pay the price.

And we’ve got momentum: Experts increased our odds of winning and officially named Ohio as a key Senate race to watch, and two new polls show we have a slight lead over our opponent.

But I need your help: Corporate special interests have already spent millions attacking me with misleading ads. The only way we can fight back and win in Ohio is with grassroots contributions from supporters like you.

If you're with me, please chip in any amount today. If you'd like to become one of my TOP supporters and receive exclusive updates from our campaign team, text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you for standing with me.
