The final push
Today marks 16 days until Election Day – which means we’re at the point in the campaign where it’s time to leave everything on the field.
Help us win this critical Senate race in 16 days!
At this point in the campaign, we’re firing on all cylinders to make sure as many voters cast their ballots on or before November 3. But as usual, that means something different in Alaska than in the Lower 48. More than 80% of our communities aren’t on the road system, so we need to travel by small plane, skiff, or snowmachine to get there.
We’re about to kick off an enormous GOTV tour across the entire state: Fairbanks, Bethel, the Kenai, Juneau, the Mat-Su, and finishing in Anchorage on November 3. Over the next 16 days, we are going to meet THOUSANDS of Alaskans… and I can’t wait!
I try not to put too much stock in polls. The energy that I feel on the ground matters more to me than any survey ever could. But it’s impossible to ignore the fact that – after tens of millions of dollars have been spent on attack ads against me – this race is tighter than ever.
This race will be won – or lost – over the next 16 days, so it’s more important than ever that we meet as many Alaskans face-to-face as we possibly can. This campaign has been energizing and grueling in equal measure, and we’re almost at the finish line. Now, we just need to finish strong.
We’re ending this campaign the way we’ve run it the entire time: On the ground with Alaskans across the state. Person-to-person. Mukluk telegraph. One conversation at a time.
But campaigning this way is EXPENSIVE, and we’re counting on an enormous surge of support in these final days. So please, if you can, make a grassroots contribution today to power our final GOTV tour, and help us win the most competitive and consequential Senate race in the entire country.
Thank you, truly, for everything you’ve done to support this campaign since we launched in January. It means the world to me.
Now let’s go win. 🐟❤️🇺🇸
