I got this from Amy McGrath (beat Mitch McConnell)

[Omaha Steve]

Steven,

Thanks so much for joining the team that’s going to help me replace Mitch McConnell in the United States Senate.

First off, I want to let you know that we can win this: We’ve pulled to a virtual tie in polling, we’ve closed the gap in fundraising, and we’re giving Mitch the biggest challenge he’s seen in his 35-year career.

The bad news is, Mitch is already on the attack—he’s been on the air for months and has shown he’s willing to lie about me and my positions. I’ll be fighting back every step of the way. Can you make a donation today to help make sure voters know what’s at stake in this election?

For some background: Mitch McConnell has been Kentucky’s senator since I was 9 years old. During his more than three decades in office, he’s been an unabashed career politician—putting D.C. lobbyists, special-interest allies, and his own political career ahead of our country, our Constitution, and the needs of Kentuckians.

Along the way, he’s turned Washington into something we all despise. And the partisan games he’s played this year—while our nation has been gutted by the medical and economic impacts of the coronavirus—have proven again how urgently Mitch needs to go.

I will be a different kind of senator. I graduated from the Naval Academy, fought hard for the opportunity to fly fighter jets, and served 20 years in the Marine Corps, attaining the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. I deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, where I flew 89 combat missions and became the first woman in the Marine Corps to fly in an F/A-18 in combat. After retiring from the Marines, I’m ready to serve our country again.

If elected, I plan to bring back some basic values I learned as a Marine and a mom: Put people first. Accomplish the mission. Always put our country’s interests over partisan politics, no matter what.

Our leaders need to learn to work together again. That’s what we do at our own kitchen table—my husband, Erik, a 20-year U.S. Navy veteran, is a lifelong Republican. The oaths we took were to our Constitution, not a political party.

As Kentucky’s next U.S. senator, I plan to be a leader who is ready to work with anyone to solve our problems, and ready to stand up to anyone who gets in the way—no matter their party.

Here’s the thing: we all know this is going to be a hard race. Mitch McConnell has over $15 million in the bank—and that doesn’t count the special interests already spending big to keep their guy in power.

I’m not afraid of Mitch McConnell and his deep-pocketed friends because we have proven that grassroots campaigns work. With you on my side, I know we can win this.

Make a donation of any amount to fund our campaign—and let’s show the world that we have a team that can defeat Mitch McConnell and restore moral leadership in Washington.

Defeat Mitch. Defend democracy.

Let's go,
Amy

1. This shows what a great person she is. Kentucky could do so much better with this Freshman Senator

than with what they have now who is just using the office to benefit himself.

I want her to focus on how McConnell and his wife have personally gained themselves while denying things to people in Kentucky.

2. I have sent her a number of donations.

Not huge ones, but every little bit helps. I really hope she wins. I want McConnell gone as much as I want Trump gone.

12. Same

I hope she wins.

3. She's getting some of my donations!

(I want the basturd McConnell OUTA THERE!) I am WA-A-AY over-budget on political donations this year, with part going to Amy, but I'll send her some more if I can find it!

It's going to take a LOT to win this election; Losing it will take EVERYTHING we have.

4. That's a great letter

I have so much admiration for Amy McGrath. I really hope she can go all the way.
The people of Kentucky deserve better than Moscow Mitch.

Go Amy!

[BlancheSplanchnik]

5. I've donated to her a few times, from Western NY.

GO AMY!!!

[RobertDevereaux]

7. Donated!

8. Hope she recieves so huge donations from PACS to help her out.....

I live a couple of States over but I want McConnell GONE in January as bad as Trump.

[yellowdogintexas]

9. this native of the Commonwealth will send her a small donation

even though our own veteran who is challenging the #2 Republican in the Senate can also use the $
We have these two extraordinary women going up against the most powerful men in the US Senate; knocking those two horrid men down changes the power structure in the Senate in a really big way

10. K and R

11. I'm in!

Been giving, and will give more. On days when mcconnell really hacks me off, I drop in a little more. Helps that I rather like Amy McGrath as a candidate. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to give to those races outside your area, this is it. This is the time.

13. I, too, have donated to the McGrath campaign

Wanted to share what's going on, on the ground in KY. McGrath is working hard. I have already received three phone calls from the McGrath campaign asking for help and our vote. The great thing about it is that the people who are calling are locals -- not calling from a centralized phone bank out of state or out of Lexington/Louisville.

I have had two yard signs brought to my door and planted in the ground. You can well imagine McGrath signs well outnumber McConnell -- by far. mcConnell has no presence in my Eastern Ky. town.

McGrath is flying her own plane across KY to meet people. The day she was in my small town, she had already been to one other city and was scheduled for a third in one day. Because she is prohibited from large gatherings because of Covid, this method of campaigning looks to one advantage she has over Mitch.

Of course, she is blanketing the airwaves and multiple platforms with her advertisements.

So if someone is going to beat Mitch, you all and the other donaters are providing her with the means to get her message to the people.

It will be a tough win, but I am beginning to have some hope because of the way the campaign is working so aggressively.

Ditch Mitch

[Mersky]

14. She is flying her own plane to campaign. That. Is. Awesome.

Is a really great look at her efforts that you’ve shared. Gets me fired up! Is so freakin’ smart!
