I received two e-mails from the former U.S. Senate Majority/Minority Leader Harry Reid (D. NV). The first one came yesterday in support of Susie Lee’s (D. NV-03) congressional campaign:
It’s never been more important for Democrats to hold all our seats in the U.S. House.
That’s why I’m writing you today: Susie Lee is running in my home state in Nevada’s 3rd district -- one of the most competitive battleground districts in the country.
For more than 20 years, Susie spent her career building local organizations to give Nevada children and families in need an opportunity to get ahead.
She’s got the tenacity, local experience, and compassion to go to work for Nevada in Congress.
Can you join me in supporting Susie Lee by chipping in a donation today?
The far-right has taken Congress hostage, and if we don’t stop their agenda, millions could lose health insurance, and they could destroy Medicare as we know it.
Susie’s race in Nevada’s 3rd will be instrumental in our fight to win back the House for Democrats, and National Republicans are already making a major play for this seat -- we’re depending on help from supporters like you.
Please, chip in to help Susie Lee win Nevada’s 3rd so we can give Nevadans the representation they deserve and take back our House majority.
Thanks for helping me out,
Harry Reid

The other one came today in support of Rep. Jacky Rosen’s (D. NV) U.S. Senate campaign:
This is important: Everyone from Nate Silver to The New York Times is saying that Democrats can take back the Senate this fall – but only if we win in Nevada.
The stakes couldn't be higher. If we fail to take back the Senate, we won't be able to stop the GOP's far-right agenda. We'll get more extremist Supreme Court nominees, Planned Parenthood will be gutted, and Medicare will be slashed.
And right now, a recent poll shows this must-win race is a dead heat. So if we want to take back the Senate, we need to get off the sidelines today and do everything we can to help Jacky win.
I told Jacky I'd help her raise $15,000 by midnight – but with just hours left, we're still falling short.
Please give $5 right now to flip Nevada blue and take back the Senate for Democrats!
Jacky is exactly the kind of leader we need in the Senate: someone with grit and compassion. Someone who's a fighter, who will work day and night for every single American.
But Republicans are desperate to hold on to their Senate majority, so they've already pledged to spend millions to win in Nevada. That means we have no room for error.
Jacky can't win without you, so I'm personally asking you to step up today. Please give $5 – whatever you can spare before midnight – to help Jacky fend off Republican attacks and take back the Senate for Democrats.
Thank you,
Harry
