Annie Comes Home: We were ahead. Now, we’re not.

We were ahead. Now, we’re not.

Hi – is there anything I can say to convince you to chip in $5 to my Senate campaign today?

Jon Husted 49% Sherrod Brown 47% donate now. "I can only win this race if I have your support"- Sherrod

What if I told you that not one, but two polls show me trailing my opponent, Jon Husted, with the latest showing me two whole points behind?

What if I told you that experts say Ohio is the bellwether that will decide Senate performance for Democrats, and losing here would mean losing our chance to take back the Senate?

What if I told you that we’re on track to beat our own record for the most expensive Senate campaign, with $317 million already being spent against us?

The momentum has been behind our campaign since the start. But misleading attack ads and millions in crypto and billionaire cash in this final stretch are already proving to put us in a backslide. Whether we’re able to counter the smears and reach voters with the truth depends on folks like you.

So please, will you chip in $5 – or even $10 – to fuel our campaign, help us get back our lead, and win in Ohio?

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

Hey there! It's Sherrod Brown.

There's nobody fighting for Ohioans in the U.S. Senate right now, and I won't sit on the sidelines while working people get screwed over by large corporations and wealthy political donors.

If you work hard, you should be able to afford a decent life. But the reality is, life is too expensive. Costs are going up. Wages are staying stagnant. Working people are working harder than ever before, and they're not getting their share of the profit.

This campaign is all about changing that – and election analysts say we have a strong shot at winning in November.

But I'll need your help to pull it off: My opponent is a Washington insider being propped up by the Republican establishment, and he's got virtually unlimited resources.

That's not how our campaign works. We're a grassroots movement, and that means we rely on ordinary people chipping in a couple bucks. If you're able, please make a donation of any amount today. It could be what helps us flip Ohio and the Senate.

If you'd like to receive exclusive updates from my team, you can text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you.
