The GOP is scared

Trump can’t stop worrying about Ohio.

FIRST: Trump came to Ohio to rally his base exactly one month out from Election Day. He knows this battleground race will decide Senate control, and he’s parachuting in, pretending like he cares, in order to save his handpicked candidate.

THEN: He sent JD Vance here on Friday to try to save Husted's failing campaign, too. This is Vance’s old Senate seat, so for him, keeping Husted in office is personal.

NOW: Trump is in Youngstown TODAY to spew more attacks at me.

I am the GOP's No. 1 target in this election. More money has been spent here than in Georgia, Alaska, and North Carolina combined. Top super PACs are actively moving money from other states to spend it against us instead.

Trump and his Republican henchmen are going all in because they know their self-serving agenda can’t continue if Husted is kicked out. They know I will make sure the voices of Ohio's working families always come before wealthy billionaires.

We have Trump and the GOP scared, but we also have their full attention. That’s why it’s crucial we show our own strength before Trump takes the stage tonight.

I’ve set a goal to raise $500,000 before 7:00 p.m., but I can only reach it with your help. Can I count on you to chip in $5 right now? With Election Day less than four weeks away, we can’t afford to take our foot off the gas.

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.

Thank you.
