Up early crunching the numbers…

Hi there,

I have a busy day on the campaign trail ahead of me, so I’m up early so I can review the progress we’re making for our end-of-month fundraising drive before I hit the road.

I just sat down with my morning coffee, and here’s the deal:

Our deadline is tonight at midnight, and so far we’ve raised about $1.3 million toward our $2 million goal. We’ve made real progress but still have a lot of ground to cover today.

Will you chip in if you can? Here’s the link where my team and I will be tracking donations throughout the day. Our 2X match is still active until midnight: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/sherrod-email-q3-2026-match

What we’re building here in Ohio is incredible, and I’m so grateful to have the support of folks like you.

You’re the reason that Ohio is in play and the Senate may flip. You’re the reason we’ve fought our way into a race that Nate Silver and The Cook Political Report now rate a Toss Up.

But the big challenge for us is that corporate special interests and dark-money groups are spending millions to defeat us – and attack ads designed to distort my record are all over the airwaves, including $3.6 million in ads from Peter Thiel running this week alone.

We have to fight back.

I’m more fired up than ever about flipping this seat and giving working people a true voice in the Senate. And no, it’s not the rocket fuel talking. ☕

I know I ask a lot of you. My team has reached out more times than either of us can count. More times than I'd like, to be honest. But this is the biggest fundraising goal we’ve faced yet, and falling short would mean making serious cuts to the campaign strategy and TV ads we desperately need in this final stretch.

Today, I’m asking you to make a donation to our people-powered campaign.

Will you chip in $5, or whatever you can afford, before midnight to help us close this fundraising gap and win in Ohio?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you,

Sherrod

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.
