Lucas,
We have less than 3 weeks to prevent a Republican Senate takeover. Can you imagine having Todd Akin taking his beliefs about "legitimate rape" to the Senate? Or Senate leadership falling into the hands of Mitch McConnell?
I can't either.
That's why I'm asking you to donate to EMILY's List today and help lead our women candidates to victory.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Women will make the difference on November 6th. Our impact on pro-choice Democratic women candidates will be not only in the voting booth, but with our crucial financial support.
Our most competitive races are deadlocked. Elizabeth Warren. Claire McCaskill. Shelley Berkley. Tammy Baldwin. What EMILY's List does in the next 16 days could mean our Senate majority is maintained -- or that it falls to the Todd Akins of the GOP. I've seen first-hand what EMILY's List does for women candidates. They were there for me when I was just a mom in tennis shoes and the pundits and pollsters didn't give me a chance. But EMILY's List swooped in and led me to victory.
I need you to help EMILY's List do exactly that for our women this year by making a generous contribution right now.
Thank you for standing with me to stop these anti-woman extremists in their tracks and push EMILY's List candidates over the finish line.
Sincerely, Patty Murray
