Every corner of Kentucky

We've reached out to voters over 4 million times since August 1st.

Jason, there's a story that's not being told about our race against Mitch McConnell.

This grassroots team is in the middle of a voter mobilization effort the likes of which Kentucky—and Mitch McConnell—has never seen. These numbers just blow me away:

  • Our team has had more than five million voter contact attempts since August and more than 1.2 million this last week alone.
  • We've had over 400,000 one-on-one conversations with key voters since August 1st.
  • People are voting in historic fashion—over 658,000 mail-in ballots were requested. To put that in perspective, that's about 35% of the total votes cast in Kentucky in 2016.
  • By our estimates, we believe that close to 60% of those ballot requests to date are from Amy supporters.

Those numbers are the reason Mitch McConnell is more worried than ever, and it's why his special-interest allies have decided to pour so much money into helping him hold on to this seat. Those numbers are how an underdog campaign pulls this off.

We can absolutely win this, but it'll take a huge push in these final 24 days. Chip in $25 or more today and help supercharge our voter contact operation for the home stretch.

All over Kentucky, we're talking to folks every day who are fed up with the status quo. Every day, we hear people—even people who may have spent decades voting for Republicans—say they're fed up with Mitch's B.S.

If Mitch McConnell thinks he and his special interest friends can spend their way to victory—with over $16 million in dark money—he's wrong.

We're doing this differently, one dollar, one donation and one conversation at a time. Beating Mitch won't take one big break or one easy fix. It's going to take hundreds of thousands—millions—of small, dedicated actions, conversations, and connections to get this done.

Amy's counting on this team to build it, especially right now. Will you chip in today?

Thank you,
Dan
