I know what it takes to run a tough race

I can't protect this seat and our Senate majority without your support.

First off, let me start this note to you with an enormous THANK YOU. Earlier this year, I contacted this grassroots team to share the news that I'm running for reelection, and there was an incredible response. I couldn't be more thankful to have you on my side. Now, let's get down to business. Here's where things stand: Right now, the U.S. Senate is our last line of defense on so many issues that matter to Americans. Analysts at FiveThirtyEight recently said that Mitch McConnell and the GOP have "a clear path" to retaking the Senate majority next year, so we need to roll up our sleeves and get to work. It's up to you and me to do everything in our power to make sure that doesn't happen. As the only Democrat elected statewide in Ohio, I know what it takes to run a tough race -- and that's grassroots supporters like you, Jason. I can't protect this seat and our Senate majority without your support. So please, will you split $10 or more between my campaign and the DNC so I can keep this seat blue and Democrats can win up and down the ballot nationwide? Trust me when I say that a $10 donation will go a long way. DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 DONATE: $250 Donate another amount I know this is going to be a hard-fought campaign, but I'm confident we can get it done.
