Slowdown (not great)

Hi,

I’ve been reviewing our fundraising numbers, and things aren’t looking so great.

This slowdown comes on the heels of the GOP’s top super PAC announcing a nearly $80 million investment in Ohio – and they’ll use every cent to try to defeat me.

Listen, I know we can win this race. Experts know it, too: Both The Cook Political Report and Inside Elections recently upgraded our chances of flipping this seat.

But right now, the only way I can fight back against the GOP’s attacks and keep up our momentum is with grassroots support. We just can’t afford a setback like this.

Please: If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to make your first donation to our campaign, today is the day. Will you chip in $5 to flip Ohio and the Senate?

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

Thanks for coming through.

Sherrod Brown

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.
