Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator-Elect Catherine Cortez Masto (D. NV) in support of Foster Campbell’s (D. LA) U.S. Senate campaign:
Nov. 8 may be behind us – but with the Louisiana Senate runoff still ahead, Democrats have one last chance to stand up to Donald Trump and the hateful, disgusting rhetoric that fueled his campaign.
Democrat Foster Campbell needs our help in Louisiana. Winning this seat would give Democrats 49 seats in the U.S. Senate – and another check on Republicans’ disastrous and dangerous policies as we defend all our hard-won progress.
But with only five days left until Foster’s runoff election, I really need this team to help him cross the finish line – just like you helped me.
Can I count on you to give $5 or more today to help Foster Campbell win in Louisiana and become the 49th Democrat in the U.S. Senate?
POLITICO has reported just how high the stakes are in this runoff for a seat in the Mitch McConnell-led Senate: “If his majority is only 51 seats, just two GOP defectors could cripple his and Trump’s agenda.” And it’s true: Just two Republicans crossing party lines could completely devastate Trump’s efforts to undo all of our progress.
Foster Campbell is a cattle rancher who was born and raised in Louisiana, and he has a real chance to turn this seat blue. Foster has stood up to Big Oil time and time again – the same Big Oil that ravaged the state’s coast, and the same Big Oil that’s got Foster’s Republican opponent in its back pocket.
This is truly Democrats’ last chance to help put a stop to a Trump-McConnell-Ryan agenda: Can you step up to give $5 or more today to help Foster Campbell win in Louisiana, flip the seat blue and serve in Washington as another check on Donald Trump?
Washington Republicans took enough on Election Day. But they didn’t take our seat here in Nevada, and I know, with you on his team, Foster is not going to let them win in Louisiana either.
¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues!
