Annie Comes Home: They are pummelling us with attacks.

Thursday, April 9, 2026

They are pummelling us with attacks.

Team, it's Sherrod. Senate Republicans are pummelling my campaign with $79 million worth of attacks.

After huddling with my finance team and campaign manager, one thing became clear: We need today to be our strongest grassroots fundraising day of the campaign yet. If that's all you need to hear, please rush a donation.

RUSH A DONATION

I’ll start with the good news. We just had a huge fundraising push for our end-of-quarter deadline. Tens of thousands of folks stepped up to make their first donation because they understand just how much is at stake.

Together, we raised over $12.5 million already this year.

Those are great numbers on their own. But what makes them even more impressive is that 96% of individual donations were $100 or less – and our average grassroots contribution was $35.24.

It speaks volumes about the strength of our movement and the energy that working people are bringing to the fight.

But I'm afraid there's bad news.

Senate Republicans' super PAC just announced they're funnelling $79 MILLION into stopping our momentum. They're spending more in Ohio than anywhere else in the country.

The GOP's cash infusion has changed the game overnight. So now, we need to respond.

I promise I wouldn’t ask if it weren’t important. But this is as important as it gets. Please chip in anything you can to help me reach today’s fundraising target and flip this seat:

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

I'm so appreciative of this team. Thank you.

Sherrod

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Personal message from Sherrod: I didn’t plan on running for office again.

But when I saw how these guys in Washington are only looking out for their billionaire friends and special interests, I knew I had to get back in the fight.

This grassroots movement is about fighting back against a rigged system that benefits the wealthy and well-connected, while working people pay the price.

And we’ve got momentum: Experts increased our odds of winning and officially named Ohio as a key Senate race to watch, and two new polls show we have a slight lead over our opponent.

But I need your help: Corporate special interests have already spent millions attacking me with misleading ads. The only way we can fight back and win in Ohio is with grassroots contributions from supporters like you.

If you're with me, please chip in any amount today. If you'd like to become one of my TOP supporters and receive exclusive updates from our campaign team, text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you for standing with me.
