Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Gary Peters (D. MI) in support of Governor Maggie Hassan’s (D. NH) U.S. Senate campaign:
When I first ran for Congress, this community helped me defeat an eight-term Republican opponent. And last year, you helped me overcome the big-money special interests to be the only new Democrat elected to the U.S. Senate. You know how to fight the tough fights, and you know how to win. That’s why I’m coming to you.
Maggie Hassan is a proven fighter on our shared issues — and she’s always fighting to protect women’s health and combat climate change. In short, she’s exactly the kind of Democrat we need in the U.S. Senate and one of our best shots at taking back the Senate.
But she’s up against a conservative Republican incumbent, and right-wing special interests spent millions of dollars against her before she even got in the race. Election Day is just a year away, and what we do now will determine whether we can win this critical race and take back the Senate.
Make a donation of $3 or more today to stand with me in support of Maggie so we can defeat another sitting Republican and take back the Senate.
Maggie’s race won’t be easy.
Each Election Day, every politician running for office delivers a speech. We watch the vote tallies tick up, and we cross our fingers that the numbers let us give an acceptance speech.
But if Maggie is going to give an acceptance speech, we’re going to have to do a lot more than cross our fingers. Rush your donation right now — one year before Election Day — to make sure Maggie has what she needs to lay the groundwork for her campaign and take back the Senate in 2016.
Thanks for being part of this,
Gary Peters
P.S. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to spend Election Day watching results come in and wishing we had done more. > Will you donate what you’re able so we can make sure we send Maggie to the Senate?
