Received this e-mail yesterday from U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D. MD) in support of Jaime Harrison’s (D. SC) U.S. Senate campaign:
Jaime Harrison (D. SC)
I’m writing to you today to ask for your help to support my friend Jaime Harrison in his campaign to defeat one of Trump’s favorite Senators: Lindsey Graham.
Experts are saying that this race will be one of the most expensive in the country, but despite facing Graham’s well-funded Super PAC, Jaime Harrison is neck and neck with Senator Graham.
Unlike Lindsey Graham, Jaime Harrison is running a grassroots campaign that doesn’t rely on support from special interest groups that exploit our democratic process for personal gain — even in the midst of a national crisis.
As a loyal sycophant for Donald Trump, Graham has the full support of the president’s donors. Jaime needs to build an unprecedented grassroots movement to win — and so far, that’s exactly what he’s been doing.
As chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Lindsey Graham has sought to place the interests of Donald Trump above the rule of law over and over again. That’s why it’s essential we have Jaime Harrison’s back in the fight ahead.
