Jason, Brandon Presley here!
Today, I've got exciting news: I'm joining Dirt Road Democrats PAC as the new Co-Chair! And we're getting straight to work, so will you chip in to help turn out a record-breaking number of rural voters this November and elect Democrats all over the country?
Let me tell you a little bit about me and why I'm excited to hit the ground running. ⤵️
I was born and raised in rural Mississippi in a dirt-poor household without a stove or refrigerator. My mama worked at the local garment factory before it shut down — she worked every day to make me and my family not feel as poor as we really were.
I don't want anyone, anywhere to struggle the way my family did.
So when I was 23, I got elected as the mayor of my hometown, and then, I served as the Public Service Commissioner for a decade and a half.
I'm proud of what I helped deliver for hardworking Mississippians — bringing high-speed internet to some of the most rural areas of Mississippi, creating new jobs with the Hire Mississippi program, and even cutting taxes twice.
Last year, I ran for Governor of Mississippi against Republican incumbent Tate Reeves — because I wholeheartedly believe that we must do better than his corrupt brand of leadership and look out for the little guy, not just the wealthy and well-connected.
We came closer to flipping Mississippi than any Democrat in 20 years, and I came away from that election with an even greater commitment to mending our broken political system and getting things done for rural folks who are struggling to make ends meet.
That's exactly what Dirt Road Democrats PAC is setting out to accomplish this year by engaging more rural voters than EVER before and electing a wave of Democrats. And we need your support to meet our critical $50,000 goal this week, so please chip in any amount below. 👇

Throughout my life, I've seen how some Democratic "strategists" have completely written off voters living in rural areas of "red states."
And as a result, folks aren't turning out to vote — or they're voting for Republicans — because no one has shown up at their door, called their phone, or engaged them in meaningful conversations about how Democratic leaders will actually help create better futures for them and their families.
Dirt Road Democrats have made significant progress across the country on this front, but we need to keep our foot on the gas.
If we continue to make significant investments in organizing the most rural areas of our country, we can boost support for Democrats AND take a pulse on what issues these marginalized communities are really facing.
It's a no-brainer.
So please, Jason: Will you help reach our $50,000 goal to launch new rural organizing programs across the country? Your support for Dirt Road Democrats PAC will help engage new voters and win big for Democrats this November!
