Midnight Deadline
-by John Morse and Paul Weissmann
Today in Colorado, we hold Democratic majorities in both chambers of the state legislature -- the first back-to-back-to-back majorities in half a century. No one did more to produce this extraordinary opportunity -- or to make effective use of it -- than Andrew Romanoff.
Andrew has worked day and night to turn our state around. Hundreds of thousands of Coloradans are healthier and wealthier and better educated because of his leadership:
- 25,000 more children in Colorado can go to preschool or kindergarten;
- 50,000 more can go to a doctor or a nurse, instead of an emergency room;
- And 100,000 more students will find it a little easier to go to college.
We support Andrew’s candidacy not just because of what he’s already done for Colorado but because of what he will do in the U.S. Senate. Today we ask you to join us in supporting Andrew at this crucial end-of-quarter deadline.
Contribute $50, $100 or even $500 today. The fundraising quarter ends at midnight!
Millions of families are losing their jobs, their homes, and their savings. We can't wait for help to arrive. We can't wait to rebuild our economy or reform our financial system. We can't wait to protect our pensions from being raided or our jobs from being shipped overseas. We certainly can't wait to stop corporate cash from drowning our democracy and washing away our hopes for change in Washington, D.C.
Contribute $50, $100 or even $500 today to restore the power of people.
We support Andrew because he is the strongest candidate in this race -- the best qualified to serve and the best equipped to win. He will take all the energy he put into capturing the Statehouse and use it to lead our ticket to victory in November.
Every recent poll shows that Andrew has the best chance to hold this seat. He defeats Jane Norton by five points, Ken Buck by eight points, and Tom Wiens by 11. That's because the message he's delivering reaches across the aisle and across the state.
When Andrew wins, that message will reach all the way across the country, to the backroom-dealmakers and powerbrokers -- the special-interest groups that prowl the corridors of the Capitol. Andrew isn’t taking their money, but he does need yours.
This is a critical time -- not just for Andrew’s campaign, but for our nation. We can take our democracy back, one voter at a time.
Make your voice heard right now.
Sincerely,
Sen. John Morse (D-Colorado Springs)
Senate Majority Leader
Rep. Paul Weissmann (D-Louisville)
House Majority Leader
P.S.: Andrew not only won the statewide caucuses; he's been gaining ground in nearly every county. We picked up support last night in Baca, Eagle, San Juan and Yuma. Please keep our momentum going by contributing before midnight tonight!
