Received this e-mail today from Vice President Joe Biden in support of Deborah Ross’ (D. NC) U.S. Senate campaign:
Hi fellow Deborah supporters,
I was just in North Carolina on Tuesday campaigning with Deborah Ross. Let me tell you, she’s got what it takes to be the next United States Senator from this great state.
It really boils down to two things:
- It doesn’t take someone like me who knows the Senate to see Deborah has the skills, temperament, and judgment to be a great Senator. No one thought this would be a race, but Deborah persevered. She got out there and did what she’ll do as Senator: Listen to North Carolinians. Deborah is the real deal. Will you help her get to the Senate? Chip in $5.
- North Carolina will decide the direction this country heads on and after Election Day. This race is a dead heat. If Deborah wins, Democrats could regain majority control of the Senate. I cannot stress enough how important this is. Deborah’s opponent, along with his Republican colleagues, have opposed President Obama and me at every turn, bringing down the institution of the Senate with them. Passing budgets that stiff middle-class families. Blocking the nomination of a qualified Supreme Court, for no other reason than selfish political gain. Failing to disavow Donald Trump and his dangerous views and actions. Election Day is only 6 days away. Can you chip in $5 or $10 so we help Deborah score a victory and take back the Senate?
I know we can do this team. You’ve already proven what powerful grassroots team you are. Now we just need to finish strong.
Special interest groups have unloaded millions of dollars in North Carolina to try and stop Deborah. We need to help Deborah hold them off.
Let’s make Washington a place that works for all families in North Carolina and across the country. Help elect Deborah. Give $5 or $10.
Have a good one,
Joe
