Received this e-mail today from Democracy for America:
New polling has progressive hero and DFA endorsed candidate Rep. Donna Edwards neck-and-neck with her opponent in the all-important Maryland U.S. Senate race -- and there's just over a week to go before Election Day. Donna's opponent is spending big on a barrage of attack ads distorting Donna Edwards's record in Congress. We know that even when we're being outspent by a huge margin, we can win with people power -- as long as we can get everyone out to the polls. This Wednesday, DFA members across America are mobilizing to help turn out voters ahead of next week's election. Starting at 6PM Eastern, we'll jump on a call together to get an update on the state of the race, get trained on using the DFA Dialer calling tool, and then recruit DFA members to help Donna Edwards win. Can we count on you to help Get Out the Vote for Donna Edwards this Wednesday, April 20, at 6PM Eastern? Yes, sign me up for Wednesday's DFA Dialer recruitment kickoff for Donna Edwards. No, I cannot make it but I'll pitch in $3 to help elect Donna Edwards to the Senate. By joining us this Wednesday, you'll be stepping up to help send a true progressive leader to the Senate. You can also help make history -- by helping to elect the first Black woman from Maryland ever to the U.S. Senate, and only the second Black woman in United States to serve in the Senate. Donna Edwards's leadership, progressive values, and track record make her the right choice for this important seat in the Senate. She is a proven champion in the fight against income inequality and for economic, environmental, and social justice. She is the only candidate in the race who refuses to take money from the Wall Street banks, and the only candidate to refuse to consider cutting Social Security. These conversations with voters can make the key difference in this all-important Senate race. Will you join us on Wednesday, April 20, at 6PM Eastern to help send Donna Edwards to fight alongside Elizabeth Warren in the U.S. Senate? Yes, sign me up for Wednesday's DFA Dialer recruitment kickoff for Donna Edwards. No, I cannot make it but I'll pitch in $3 to help elect Donna Edwards to the Senate. Thank you for your help electing a strong progressive to the Senate. - Jay Jay Henderson, Digital Strategy Manager Democracy for America
