MD-Sen: Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D. NY) Determined To Help Donna Edwards (D) Win Her Primary

Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D. NY) in support of Rep. Donna Edwards’ (D. MD) U.S. Senate campaign:

With just over 8 weeks left to go until Election Day in this primary, what you do now couldn't be more important.

Donna Edwards will be the progressive champion we need fighting next to me in the Senate, but she is facing a big fundraising disadvantage and a critical deadline tonight.

She needs to hit her monthly goal of $50,000 and stay on track if she is going to win. Will you pitch in before midnight? Rush $5 or more now to build a progressive majority in the Senate.

We have big challenges ahead -- and I believe we need Donna's voice in the Senate to solve them.

When it comes to protecting Planned Parenthood, expanding paid leave, and building an economy that works for everyone, I can't think of a better fighter to have at my side than Donna Edwards.

And, plain and simple, if we ever want to achieve the progress we are fighting for -- we must take back the Senate with progressive champions like Donna who will fight tooth and nail against Republicans and special interests.

If you were waiting to invest in this race, let me tell you, we need you in this fight now.

Rush $5 to Donna's campaign towards her $50,000 goal before midnight. I know if you pitch in we can hit this goal and win in April.

Thank you for standing with me,

Kirsten Gillibrand
