Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Kirsten Giilibrand (D. NY) in support of Rep. Donna Edwards’ (D. MD) U.S. Senate campaign:
This is fabulous!
EMILY’s List just went on the air with an ad buy supporting my friend Donna Edwards in her race for U.S. Senate.
This couldn’t have come at a more important moment. Donna’s opponent – who has 10 times the money she does – went up in the polls after he went on the air. If we don’t do our part to support Donna now, we risk falling too far behind to catch up.
I told them our team would activate and come through big, with $9,000 by midnight. The Senate we want depends on you giving now:
If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will be split evenly between Kirsten Gillibrand and Donna Edwards:

Take one look at Donna's bio, and you'll see why I'm so determined to help her win. A single mom who knows what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck, Donna has been a potent voice for women and families throughout her career: She was instrumental in securing the passage of the Violence Against Women Act and has been a champion in the fight for after-school nutrition programs and protecting women's reproductive health care.
This race won’t be easy, but you and I both know the fights that matter most never are.
We need $9,000 by midnight. I know that, if you give, we can do it.

You can be the difference in this race.
Thank you,
Kirsten
