Pat,
Last week, the world looked on as Americans decided who would lead our country for the next four years -- and then folks across the nation took to the streets to rejoice in the result of this presidential election. But what far fewer folks are talking about right now is that the fate of control of the U.S. Senate will be decided right here in my state of Georgia.
I'm headed into a January runoff to try to flip this seat, and control of the Senate hangs in the balance. If we send my opponent back to a GOP-controlled Senate, she'll have another two years to rubber-stamp Mitch McConnell's agenda. That's bad news for Georgia and America -- but it doesn't have to be that way, Pat, because we've demonstrated that Georgia is a state where Democrats can win.
Look, Pat: I am coming to you fully aware that the easiest thing for you to do right now is tune out of this race and continue celebrating the fact that Joe Biden will be our next president. Many will choose that path. But I mean it when I say that even a few dollars will make a real difference in the runoff fight for the Senate and for everything the DNC is doing to work on what is coming next -- a fight no less important to how this nation is governed than the one we just won. That's why I must respectfully ask you for your support:
Will you rush a $10 donation to my campaign and to support everything the DNC is doing today? I'll need all the help I can get if I'm going to take on Kelly Loeffler and her wealthy allies, and we don't have much time to change the course of this race.
It all comes down to Georgia, Pat. When we launched this campaign, no one thought we had a chance. Now both of our Senate races are headed into a runoff, and folks are seeing that Democrats have a real path forward in states like this one.
I can't overstate what we're up against. My opponent is independently wealthy, and has the backing of the entire Republican Party apparatus. But I'm certain that with folks like you investing in this race and the DNC, we can make it across the finish line in January and beyond.
So, Pat, if you're able: Will you chip in $10 to my campaign for U.S. Senate in Georgia and the DNC? Your support today could make the difference between a Democratic- or Republican-controlled Senate.
Thank you for being in this fight,
Raphael
Reverend Raphael Warnock
U.S. Senate candidate, Georgia
P.S. If we've learned anything, it's that Democrats can win in Georgia and can win anywhere. But I need your help. Split $10 between my campaign and the DNC today.
