zero safe races for Republicans

American Possibilities
DianeA—

Republicans just spent millions of dollars on a special election for a Congressional district in Ohio that President Trump won by 11 points. The Republican National Committee dropped in to open two extra field offices. The president showed up for a last-minute, prime-time rally to boost turnout.

Now, it's two days after the vote, and we still don't know the final outcome.

Every single one of us ought to look at that result and realize what's possible over the next 89 days. Republicans currently hold 68 seats that lean more Democratic than the Ohio 12th. If we win more than a third of those seats this November, we take back the House.

Simple as that, folks.

So I'm asking you to chip in $3 to make sure that we can help as many of these candidates compete as possible.

Here are just a few examples:

A few weeks ago, I announced my endorsement of Debbie Mucarsel-Powell from Florida — at the recommendation of Michael from Redland. She's running for Congress in a Republican-held district that went for Hillary Clinton by 16 points.

And we introduced you to Abby Finkenauer, who is running for Congress in Iowa. We endorsed her after a recommendation from John in Poweshiek. Her district went for Trump by just four points — after voting for President Obama in 2012 and 2008.

We also told you about Xochitl Torres Small, who is running for Congress in New Mexico. We endorsed her after a recommendation from Mary in Socorro. This race might be a tougher fight — her district went for President Trump by 10 points. But she is more than ready for that challenge. Given everything we know about this year's campaign landscape, I'm glad I'm in her corner for this one.

So far this year, together, we've endorsed 55 candidates, running in races up and down the ballot. And we aren't finished yet.

These are elections we can win, DianeA. You can help make sure we do. And you can do it right now.

Chip in $3 right now to show that this fall, all bets are off. There are no safe races for Republicans in 2018. Because the American people are showing up like never before.
